i am using a G++ compiler under cygwin (unix emulation for windows) and Microsoft Visual C++ simply to maintain the code.
im looking for a simple way to simulate some kind of map where you navigate, move cursor/units, etc...
a very simple way will be fine. but i have problems with the fact that everything is shown in the original text window and will scroll out of sight when you type anything.
i have discovered some cursor control functions, so theoretically i could use colored letters to simulate a map. but that is rather limited and unsatisfactory.
does anyone know of a way to create a new window with displays, pixels, possibly mouse controls.
or can someone help to use that Visual C++ (6.0) thing ? i used it years ago, but have forgotten what little i knew.
