Better Console

This simple library has been done for my first-year students at Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya. It adds to the Linux and Mac console the next functionalities:

• Specify foreground and background color for the printed text
• Clear screen
• Specify coordinates in the screen to print to.
• Retrieve console screen size (rows and columns)
• Empty the keyboard buffer
• Set console type echo on/off
• Show/hide console cursor
• Non-blocking read of the standard input (keyboard)

Please have a look to the betterconsole.h in-comments documentation for more documentation about the library.

It includes some utilization examples.

To compile the library as well as the examples:

gcc betterconsole.c examples.c -o examples
