ihave found <conio.h>
in my os rht9.0
But cn't use the clrscr()
and many other fns that i used in the TCC-IDE in Win-Dog
could any one tell a similar fn to clear the terminal while running a
menu based prog ..............
thanku

Hi,

it would help to know what os you are exactly using and what kind of compiler you work with. This sound like you dont have installed the gcc libc package.
Cheers.

Hi
you can use system("/bin/clear") (or whatever your clear path is) to clear the screen.
For a menu based console program, most probably, you have to use ncurses. type "man ncurses" for more info about curses lib.

how about trying
system("clear");
system command u may be knowing is defined in <stdlib.h>
and executes the string that is passed as a arguement to it on the shell.

Hi,

U can make use of system(). This fn., takes command as the arg.
For eg., system("ls"); will display all the files. So make use of
system("clear");

I U want to know more about these things mail to me!
