    heres a clue to get you started:
    Code:
    putchar('\b');
    Doubt it will be of much help in another language.

    FYI: A lot of questions have been asked over the years. Chances are good yours isn't unique, so you'd probably have luck searching the forum before starting a new thread.
    My best code is written with the delete key.
