    2) How can i make the window max on program start?

    2) Can i do font colors?

    You can change the foreground/background colors with SetConsoleTextAttribute.

    You can adjust the window size with SetConsoleWindowInfo.

    I'm not sure about the font size though...hafta check on that one...maybe someone else knows.


    Edit: This might be helpful too
