There is no such thing as graphics in ANSI-C.
You need a library of some sort, for example
Simple DirectMedia Layer
Hello, you may check out a number of multimedia libraries.
SDL was mentioned above. You may also check out SFML or programming in OpenGL directly. You will find a lot of C++ libraries, but you can find C versions of most as well. SFML has a nice plain C library and it's much easier to use than SDL.
SFML - Simple and Fast Multimedia Library
nice, thanks @Salem.My question is stupid but ,it does not work in CLI?Quote:
SDL supports Linux, Windows, Windows CE, BeOS, MacOS, Mac OS X, FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD, BSD/OS, Solaris, IRIX, and QNX. The code contains support for AmigaOS, Dreamcast, Atari, AIX, OSF/Tru64, RISC OS, SymbianOS, and OS/2, but these are not officially supported.
Correct - Command Line Interface is text oriented.
Now I noticed that if I do a new project(in code blocks) is listed among others and SDL.I need to install the library?
Yes, you will need to install something.
Code::Blocks is just an IDE/editor; if your Compiler does NOT have the needed Library; then, YOU must install it.Quote:

ok, thanks for the replies and sorry for offtopic
It's not off topic. It can be a bit tricky to install new libraries in Windows. It tends to be a bit easier in Linux. If you don't have a firm grasp of the command line, and the utilities you use it will be even more daunting to install new libraries. If you need more help finding a tutorial on getting set up with a multi media library let us know.
