winner anouncment, in a game
hey guys,
i wrote a code for a tic tac toe game, nothing to beautiful, but i hade some ishues(i managed to solve), but now i am at the "most important" part, anouncing the winner.
so i wanted to do something that is not just writing cout << player << " you won the game"
i have some ideas, but i don't have a clue how to do it.
one is to write in a bigger font : name of the player has won
or something like this, or if u have a sugestion pleas say it, and pleas say how.

How about announcing the winner's name in a flashy, different color?

It's a library based on C, but most of the new functions are similar enough to C++ for easy adaptation.
You can't mix standard C++ i/o and ncurses i/o though - one or the other. So if a part of your program is ncurses, the rest has to be as well (but the library is a good one to learn if you are interested).
You first have to install the ncurses library (which usually doesn't come default) for it to work.
If you use Code::Blocks and don't have experience installing new libraries, check out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mYnfix8ruAo, nice detailed video on installing it.

#include <curses.h> instead of what the tutorial suggests if you use C++.
