Hello I'm currently having problems with a hangman application. The application runs perfect but when it prints the text and little picture it seems messy. Is there a way to update the screen with the new info.
using '\r' wouldn't work since there are multiple lines and system("cls"); also wouldn't work because I need the old info staying in place until it guesses have been made and so forth.
It can't be done with standard C++ (at least not easily). If you wanted to do something like that, check out the curses library. That will let you modify position directly on the console without re-drawing the whole thing.
Thanks a lot for the help I heard that NCurse can be used or something but I thought it was only for GUI applications. Anyway I'm probably wrong so I will research it.
