    *eyes you* wtf if there is a 'posting' on it tell which one it is...but seriously you do a 'font' or a 'font color' search...and make sure its for console programming in c++ and u r only going to get one that even resembles what i need...but that one is incomplete ;P

    *eyes you back*

    Hey, just trying to help - if that link is down let the webmaster know it's time to update the FAQ.

    Search on "text color" - I found plenty of responses.

    Oh yeah, and in the future, don't make a new thread so you can ask the exact same question again.

    Well Supar, you're certainly not very polite to people who don't HAVE to help you. Assuming you haven't already figured it out by now here it is.
    Code:
    #include <iostream>
    #include <windows.h>
    using namespace std;  
    
    int main(void){
        HANDLE h;
    
        h = GetStdHandle(STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE); 
        SetConsoleTextAttribute(h, FOREGROUND_GREEN);
        
        cout << "Amazing green text!"<< endl;
    
        return EXIT_SUCCESS;
    }
    -Prelude
    My best code is written with the delete key.
