Hi,
Are you using the latest Dev-C++ version? I'm using version 4.9.6.9 and
clrscr() works.
After you have created a Win32 console template application through File,
New, Project, you need to do the following:
1. In your source file, you'll need to have this line.
#include <conio.h>
2. In Project Options, Linker Options/Optional Libs or Object files, you
need to add this:
-lconio
To see which console functions are supported, take a look at conio.c and
conio.h in the Dev-C++ include directory.
Regards,
Yeoh
