There should be a gcc and a gxx.exe You said you are using RHide, right ? why don't you try directly from a DOS prompt ? in order to try it in the same environment, choose the File/Dos shell option in Rhide. Then try to run gcc or gxx. try first: gcc some.c and to see if it is the path variable, try using the whole path (assuming you installed on c:\djgpp): c:\djgpp\gcc some.c hope this helps.
