Do you know the code in c++, not c. To change the color of text in a c++ dos console program.
I would really apriciate it if you know the answer and could share this information.
Thanks
alert("Hello!")
<script> alert("Hello")</script>
Yes Hi there,
you need to add:
#include <winconsole.h>
to the beginning of your sourcecode.
Then in your initialization SPAMyou need to add:
winconsole.forecolor = 000FFF;
Replace the 000FFF with the HEX code for the color you want.
To change the background:
winconsole.backcolor = 000FFF
Hope u hav phun,
From Neas

How can you change the colors of specific words and text, not the whole thing?
Thanks

'fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'winconsole.h': No such file or directory'
when i add the winconsole.h
Can you help?

Neas that's for a windows console. not dos
I don't think thier is one for C++
this is from my borland Turbo C 3.0
_____________________________________
_ textbackground selects a new text background color
_ textcolor selects a new character color in text mode
_ void textbackground(int newcolor);
_ void textcolor(int newcolor);
the "newcolor" is number 0-15. Dos only supports 16 colors
