I only want to develop Dos games, if that is still possible?

hi, I have followed all advice on how to install winbgim to work with GCC and codeblocks.
i copy'd the lib file to the lib folder and the .h files to their include folder. I then got a first error while trying to compile the analog_clock.cpp , it is saved as a .cpp....then i hit re-build and get the two instances or right in line 302 of graphics.h... so I fixed that typo to.

finally that leaves me with 0 errors and only 1warning in line 65 of analog_clock.cpp...which reads

initgraph(&gdriver,&gmode,"d:\\tc\\bgi");

this I know is a path issue looking for the "bgi",
any ideas where i will find this "bgi" beit in mingw or codeblocks?

I had this same issue with my old borland compiler so I know it was a graphics interface driver but IDK how it is implemented in mingw or codeblocks to do dos graphics..

any help would be great.

Gee that wonderful and thanks for the reply, where should i seek windows notes? is that something hosted on this site, on google?

I'm pretty sure Codeplug meant to search for "Windows Notes" within the linked page.

[iamdenteddisk]

inside codeblocks or mingw or bgi library? which should i look for this?

1. The red text in post #2 that says "BGI Documentation for initgraph" is a link - click on it
2. That link will take you to a page - search that page for "Windows Notes"
