Hi! It seems that Linux lacks a (simple) console-based drawing-programm to draw objects (text, lines, rectangles and circles) with cut/copy/paste functionallity.
So I decided to program such a software with C (gcc), like I did some years before (with TurboPascal in DOS - approx. 1000 lines). Therefore I need some C-specific programming advices (example code would be great): * function "keypressed" (waiting for a key pressed and recognition of all keys like cursor- or function-keys) * how to influence the colors of text and background (at least to show inverted text) * function "xytext" (write a text at cusorposition x,y) * function "beep" and "click" (maybe a function "sound") * function "cursorwait" (position the cursor at x,y) * write to / read from a (text)file * mathematic functions like sqrt or sin * * source for a simple introduction to C (available on the web) * What headers do I have to include? * Do I need libraries (like ncurses)? How to treat them? Thanks for any help. Dieter -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
