The shortcut file rhide.pif contains as program c:\djgpp\bin\rhide.exe -y I can launch a DOS box, then type simply rhide (I do not know if in this case dos calls directly the exe or the pif, i.e. adds the -y parameter). I have also set a file type .gpr opened with the command c:\djgpp\bin\rhide.pif "%L" (for LFN file name). In looking with regedit I have suppressed in the open command the extra %1 parameter that windows adds automatically at the end of the open command (probably because I had problem sometimes with this spurious extra parameter, but I do not remember exactly what: I had problems with this several times for several file types). In neither case does ctrl F1 produces a crash.
