Greetings,
I am just wondering if anyone of you knows the function of using the arrow keys to choose menu. I am still young at C programming but I want to learn more.
Thank you in advance.
Before I forgot, I am using Borland C. Forgot the version though.
Yours,
Dark Messiah
Read on Borland graphics library (#include <graphics.h>)
Good luck.
there is no standard function to do this.. You could obtain the key press of the arrow keys and do further processing based on the selection..
Thanks for the information guys. But do you have any idea that you would like to share with me about my problem?
I think you're right there might be no such function, but at least donate a little idea and I will try to expand this little information please?
To tell you the truth, this was supposedly our school project last semester but got changed due to many students complained because it is too difficult. But I cannot take it off my head. It challenges my limit but I only have few resources to count on hence I am just a poor kid. Our libraries are not sufficient to feed me the information I hunger. Books cost a fortune.
Any little data would be a great help to me. Thanks for the reply though.
May be this page will help you. It has many example of writing user menus using Arrow keys.
Thanks,
The faq on cprogramming.com also has a page on it. I adapted it to work on Dev-C++. It should work on Borland, all it requires is getch() or getche().
