Is there a function in c++ that lets you change or increase the size of the window when a program is running (like in windows 95 where there's no way to scroll down if the output goes over 20 lines)?

I think you can useCode:mode
but I can't remember. Use mode /? to see all the possible arguments.Code:mode /rows=50 /cols=90
Actually, it's 25.(like in windows 95 where there's no way to scroll down if the output goes over 20 lines)

No there isn't. mode isn't a C\C++ command, it's a DOS command. Anyway you could use a C command System(char *string); to issue a DOS command which would change the size of a console window, without the user interference.

or you could use some of the win32 api console functions, such as GetConsoleWindow() to get the handle to the window, then change its size as a normal window. you have to include windows.h.
