Blink in conio?

[hughLg]

When I use the blink from conio.h, the text doesn't blink, even after I switched it into full screen.
If I run from command prompt in Windows XP, I've to open and closed instantly to make the blink text blinking. Why it doesn't blink all the time in full screen, how to get it work?

I'm suprised that you got conio to work at all with XP. Conio was originally developed for 8 & 16 bit OSes. The use of conio on a 32 or 64 bit OS may lead to unpredicable behavior, as you have noted.

Is there any available stuff in Borland free C++ compiler for blinking text in console?
