Nice, sure.  But that's not enough to discard the program just because
this aspect isn't as nice as it might be.

That's an outright bug in the RHIDE builds you've been using, as far
as I followed this discussion.  For this one, you have been given a
solution.  I don't recall you having reported any feedback about that
solution, either.  I.e. as far as anybody could tell, you didn't even
bother to try that.

Because you're not any longer using Windows 95.  You're using Windows
XP now, which I told you is really rather hostile territory for DOS
programs.  Downgrade that new machine's OS to Win95, Win98 or ME, and
you'ld see that things begin working a whole lot better without any
further effort.

Pardon the french, but that's nonsense.  You've been given far more
specific answers than that.

If you want to behave like a terminally stubborn person that doesn't
listen to advice --- well, that's your privilege.  But as the saying
goes: the echo usually sounds similar to what you've been shouting at
it.
