RE: [Dev-C++] Giving up

Nor getch() nor textcolor() are ANSI C/C++ functions. They are
considered as system extensions. Dev-C++ has getch() but since
textcolor() is about graphics in dos, you are looking for some C/C++
graphic library (e.g. alegro).

Here is the code verbatim: 

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

int main() 
{ 
    int ch; 
    textcolor(BLUE); 
    printf("%s", "Hello world, this text should be Blue."); 
    ch = getch(); \\ I looked and getch() is in the conio header file 
} 

I had no problems compiling it, but the linker kicked out an error
message stating that textcolor definition could not be found. 

The only possible solution to this problem could be the include
directory in my setup so maybe I should change it to the G++ one. What
do you think? 

I want to kindly thank you for your response and look forward to
communicating more with you in the near future. 

Thanx 
Danny.
