I'm having the same problem with Rhide 1.4 under djgpp 2.02 in Win98. I had
no problem 6 months ago. I don't know weather it was the older version of
Rhide or the addition of some additional utilities running in memory (like
Norton Utilities), but I completely loose the mouse after any compilation of
any source file. Some newsfeeds suggested changing the DOS window size. That
didn't work. I tried from  8X8  to full screen. Other people must be
experiencing this problem. Rhide will probably work under DOS mode with a
DPMI server running. But I shouldn't need to go through all that trouble.
