if what you want is to delay the display time between each char then use
the delay funtion or else then sleep/Sleep function depending on your compiler
do a search and you'll find lots of help on them
but if you are asking for diff ways to show a loading screen, then the kind i like is usually the bars that increase + the percent the app has loaded.

string copy the big long thing you want to type out letter at a time
into a char then loop it with a sleep
Code:#include<windows.h> #include<iostream.h> x=0; strcpy( while(x != 100) { cout << char[x]; Sleep(250); }
sorry about weird strcpy part of the code
can't remember syntax and too lazy to look up
