1. setFocus console

I had a program that setFocus(console) and other functions and procedures dealing with the console.

I believe it was written by Otter Dad.

Does anybody know the name of that file?

or

Does anyone have the Euphoria code to focus the console window?

Thank you jimbrown,

He either emailed it to me or put it as an answer to one of my posts.

I don't think it was ever in the archives.

I checked all my past posts but can't seem to find it.

He has another one called autoDetect.exw.

That finds your USB drives.

I see the Microsoft codes. He had wrapped it for Euphoria. I don't know how to do that.

If so, then this might help:
