I am using DJGPP with RHIDE. It works great. However I have a few problems:

a) Sometimes DOS complains that the EXE is too big. Still it DOES run from
within RHIDE.

b) The app's don't seem to multitask under Win9.

I hope both would be fixed when DJGPP would compile to a Win9 console
application. But how? I hope I don't have to install a whole new package?
And IF so, what package? Cygwin? Or Egcs? What's fastest?

Speed is very important for my chess program. Furhter I must be able to work
with a profiler (GPROF is ok).

who can advise me?

Thanks very much,
Bas Hamstra.
