Hi there,

I would like to know if - and if so how - it is possible to include the standard C-libraries into a lite-C-project. For example, for the purpose of testing and de-bugging algorythms it would be very nice to have the standard console output a "normal" non-visual C program has. When writing such a program, you normally include the "stdio.h" library which allows to use "printf(char* input)" and "scanf(char* formatstring, adress)" to write stuff into the console window and also read keyboard inputs (printf works differently in Lite-C, it displays a message window which is not quite what I want here). Would it be possible to include it in Lite-C too, somehow?

Greets,

well, i don't think it will work since printf is used in gs, so i don't think...

you can work in semi-console mode if you video_mode = 0;
then printf prints on the white startup screen

Hi,

unfortunately, neither video_mode = 0; nor printing anything outside the message box works for me... When I set video_mode to 0, a small window with black background shows up. Using the "printf()" command still causes a message window to pop up though...

Greets,

If I'm not mistaken, not video_mode, but video_screen has to be set to zero.
Can't test this right now, though.

Alan, you might be interested in this , too:

ah, sorry. yeah it was video_screen
