I am writing a Text-Based Parser Adventure Game in C and had a question.
What I want is to display colored text. All of this will be from the command prompt using printf and whatnot I just want to be able to specify a color that certain text will be displayed in. How would I go about doing that? any help would be greatly appreciated
Programs for microwaves and toasters can be coded in C. This operation is OS dependant, if it is even supported. Furthermore, this question is asked very frequently, I suggest searching the board before you ask.
Which OS / Compiler?
For reasonably portable coloured text, use the ncurses library.
If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.
Thank you Salem for the help, I'll look up ncurses
and thank you Tonto for being a douchebag
problem solved, thank you very much sir
