Okay quick question::
How do I make a Console App, replace text on the same line as subbill did with the counter? :/ _________________ Performance is often the art of cheating carefully. - James Gosling |

it uses the Win32API Console functions, specifically
WriteConsoleOutput
If you read some of the related documentation, you'll see that it's very similar to controlling a windows and/or controls. I looked at this set of functions in detail once and concluded that if I wanted to use any functionality like ssbiller uses, I should be making a fully-fledged window instead.

Agreed. Trying to do GUI-type things in a console is so 80's. Learn GDI/UI and do it right. |
