How to highlight text going to a console window? 1

[JimHolloman]

I need to highlight selected text going to a console window in a console application, using Borland C Builder (BCB).

Is there a way to do it with printf()? Otherwise, what is the simplest approach; hopefully without using the VCL or graphic functions?

TIA, Jim Holloman

You used to be able to do it with conio but I don't know if that is even implemented anymore.
