Full Screen in Console

Posted by JAGuarXjs9 [send private reply] at March 27, 2002, 07:20:29 PM

Im using win xp, just incase. Is there a function/command or anything to make a console window load to full screen?

umm I think you can specify the width and height, som aybe you could, so say emualte full screen. Not sure how I think there is a function in windows.h like COORD console_size = (80,25); for example. Cant say it will work i'm only a newbie programmer.

Theres a a command to maximize the dos window. It can never go fullscreen tho.

how about alt-enter?

Presumably you want to do this programmatically; you might be able to use the windows SendKeys api to send an alt and an enter keystroke to the window. RTFM at MSDN for more information.

Also if you set a graphics mode it will automatically full screen it, like 13h. I have some asm code for doing that somewhere if you need it

I think he didn't took his medication today.
Or he took too much, considering his behavior, he must be around 12. The age when they need so much attention. pity.
Well, at least he didn't misspell 'fuck'.

Posted by gian [send private reply] at April 01, 2002, 08:18:04 PM

I would put his age around 12...

What actually provoked that little display? This thread sat idle for some time, and then sprung back to life in a flurry of swearing.... it seems there should be something else.... why "bitch"? We all love insulting Codered, but that one was just out of place....

Posted by CodeRed [send private reply] at April 01, 2002, 09:27:43 PM

Yah that one even offended me LOL, I was actually trying to help for once

You are really strange...

I just don't understand your seemingly irrational desire to fill this messageboard with frivilous and crap messages!

Do you care to explain it?

I've deleted all of the satellite threads from this one, and I'll also delete anything else posted here. We should all try to behave reasonably, including not filling up the message boards with self-righteous attacks on people who set out to irritate.
