See topic. Thank you in advance.
 
You can try something like this:
void clrscr()
{
putchar(27);
fputs("[H",stdout);
putchar(27);
fputs("[J",stdout);
}
 
What does the syntax

fputs()

do? Thanks in advance.
 
fputs() is similar to puts().
It writes the string (arg1) to the stream denoted by the file id (arg2).

MS furnishes some code for a clear screen that doesn't depend on the ANSI control codes being available. The console.h header is one of the things I miss from my old Borland compiler days. :)
