Nice..
How do you change the background color?
Pretty please?
And is there a way to make the program appear fullscreen when started up?

I have tried to use this in my program.

However when I used #include<windows.h> I get errors when I compile.

I am using the MSVisual 6.0 ???

on windows only:
system('color <put your colors here>');

colors the whole window and all text to any of the standard 16 colors

//0 = Black 8 = Gray
//1 = Blue 9 = Light Blue
//2 = Green a = Light Green
//3 = Aqua b = Light Aqua
//4 = Red c = Light Red
//5 = Purple d = Light Purple
//6 = Yellow e = Light Yellow
//7 = White f = Bright White

you put two characters, first one is background color, second is text color:
system('color c0'); //colors background to light red, with black text

ya, bakround color use . - system('color f0'); and #include <stdlib.h> it will make the bacround wight with black text for more color codes type 'color help' in cmd prompt. the first nuber ids the backround and the seconed is the text. also to start the consol in full screen send the keys alt and enter like this

keybd_event(VK_MENU, 0x38, 0, 0);
keybd_event(VK_RETURN, 0x1c, 0, 0);
keybd_event(VK_RETURN, 0X1c, KEYEVENTF_KEYUP, 0);
keybd_event(VK_MENU, 0x38, KEYEVENTF_KEYUP, 0);

Nice one :) the 'system' function..who'd have thought it :) Thanks!

To get all the system() commands (WINDOWS ONLY!), open up the command prompt (start>accessories>Command Prompt), and type 'help' (without the quotes). For help on a specific command, type 'help <command name>' (again, no quotes).

Function textcolor is used to change the color of drawing text in C programsTurbo C compiler only.

Declaration: void textcolor(int color);
where color is an integer variable. For example, 0 means BLACK color, 1 means BLUE, 2 means GREEN and soon. You can also use write appropriate color instead of integer. For example,you can write textcolor(YELLOW); to change text color to YELLOW. But use colors in capital letters only.

C programming code to change text color

C Scanf

#include<stdio.h>
#include<conio.h>

main()
{
textcolor(RED);
cprintf('C programming');

getch();
return0;
}

C programming code for blinking text

#include<stdio.h>
#include<conio.h>

main()
{
textcolor(MAGENTA+BLINK);
cprintf('C programming');

C++ Printf Format Specifier

Note that we have used cprintf function instead of printf. This is because cprintf send formatted output to text window on screen and printf sends it to stdin.
