1. Equivelant C routines
- Posted by stewartml89 at msn.com
Oct 06, 2003
Hi. I am wandering if anyone here can tell be the equivalent c routines to
some euphoria ones. I'm new to C. Also what header files need to be
included and what libs to link with. Here they are:
get_screen_char()
put_screen_char()
clear_screen()
Any help would be appreciated.

#include <conio.h>
int gettext(int left, int top, int right, int bottom, void *destin);
gets the rectangle bounded by left, top, right, and bottom and puts it in
destin.
> put_screen_char()
#include <conio.h>
int puttext(int left, int top, int right, int bottom, void *source);
puts the rectangular region (of left, top, right, bottom) on the screen.
Remember that each position takes up two bytes in memory, one for the
actual character and one for its attributes. Also, text starts at 1, 1 in
the top-left corner.
> clear_screen()
#include <conio.h>
void clrscr(void);
clears the screen and places the cursor at 1, 1.

Can any one tell me the c routines for these euphoria routines:
graphics_mode()
pixel()
display_image()
polygon() <-- do i have to write my own for this one?
I would also like to know if there is an easy way to implement sequences in
C.
Thanks in advance.
sml.

void textmode(int newmode);
but i think this only sets text modes, maybe not graphics modes, although
some of the following constants seem to be for colour graphics modes. Im'
going by Borland docs for this, so a DOS compiler may have more graphics
modes.
/* DOS-compatible modes */
LASTMODE = -1,
BW40 = 0,
C40,
BW80,
C80,
MONO = 7,
C4350 = 64,
/* New Color modes */
C40X14 = 8,
C40X21,
C40X28,
C40X43,
C40X50,
C40X60,
C80X14,
C80X21,
C80X28,
C80X43,
C80X50,
C80X60,
/* New Black & White modes */
BW40X14,
BW40X21,
BW40X28,
BW40X43,
BW40X50,
BW40X60,
BW80X14,
BW80X21,
BW80X28,
BW80X43,
BW80X50,
BW80X60,
/* New Monochrome modes */
MONO14, /* Invalid VGA mode */
MONO21,
MONO28,
MONO43,
MONO50,
MONO60,
_ORIGMODE = 65 /* original mode at program startup */
> pixel()
short setpixel(short x, short y);
could be _setpixel. Sets pixel to current colour.
> display_image()
You'll probably have to write this yourself, as display_image() isn't
built-in either.
> polygon() <-- do i have to write my own for this one?
something polygon(int screen, int arraylen, int *xyarray, int colour);
I'm not sure about this one. I've only seen it in some code.

The closest you can get is an array. You need to malloc() it and realloc()
it when needed.

This website has a nice description of graphics in C:
