Changing Color of Text?

I'm using Xcode as a compiler, and I want to figure out how to change the color of the text when I run the program. I've tried #include <windows.h>
and I get an error (It's not working :( ). Any ideas as to how to solve this problem?

Wait... You're using Xcode (a compiler for MacOS) and you're trying to change the color of the console so you ... include windows?

Eh... I guess I'm a total noob when it comes to C++.

I really don't know what to use!! :(

No worries mate! I totally understand, was there myself.

Okay so what do you want to accomplish? Change text color in the console?

Oh of course, I haven't actually used ncurses- so I don't have much info on it, but if you want to go to actual graphics I can lend you a big hand =]

With graphics, I think my computer is too old.
Too outdated...
I'm using an iBook G4 and it runs like a slug.
(What program would you use to generate graphics?)
