- I am trying to convert some programs from Borland C++ (on a PC) to gcc, and
- have had trouble getting screen displays in a vt100 or xterm terminal
- working. I'm wondering if anyone could help with any of the following
- questions:
-
- -is there a gcc equivalent to move around the screen, (gotoxy in Borland C)
- -for clearing the screen (clrscr)
- -changing background/foreground colors? (textcolor...)
-
- The last one may require sending vt100/vt220 commands. Does anyone know
- where I could get a list of those?
-
- On a separate note, does anyone know what is required to make a modem
- connection on a PC? I initialize the serial line, and send a modem
- initialization string and a atdt phone number command, but never get the
- login text. So is there something I need to do to get the connection
- established?
-
- An emailed reply would be greatly appreciated.
