Re: [Dev-C++] please help a newbee

If you really want a windows program (with graphical user interface) you =
will have to change a substantial part of you programming from Turbo =
C++. This would also be needed if you would want to swap from Turbo C++ =
(dos) to Turbo C++ (Win32).
Code that has no relation to the presentation on screen may be =
reuseable.

If you want to port Turbo C++ (dos) to DEVCPP (dosbox) you may be able =
to reuse almost all of your code. The main difference is that the Turbo =
C++ graphic functions have to be replaced to functions with similar =
functionality. You may want to check the Allegro library for this (they =
also have an add-on for Turbo C++ ports).

  Dear All,
      I am a newbee to windows programming. How should I learn about it. =
In fact, in Dev-cpp the help is not available about the commands.=20
      Can I use my code written in Turbo C++ for dos applications?=20
      Is there any help file available on the internet for Dev-Cpp =
command syntax? Will the code from Charles Petzold work well with =
Dev-cpp?

  Please help.
