    That sounds like you want some sort of graphics routine, try asking around in the Games or Windows programming boards.

    Hi,

    When you say 'get a scroll bar' does this mean

    that your output is scrolling off of the top of the screen and you want to see what it was...

    OR

    that you have a graphical interface and you want a scroll bar

    If its the first reason then try piping it to a file

    eg 'myprog > testfile'

    or using more

    eg 'myprog | more'

    (where myprog is your files name)

    Or just increase your screen resolution so that more characters will fit in the total area of your output window. Or modify how you print the characters to the output window by pausing it every now and then so that you can read it before it goes past the total area.
