I searched a lot but there seems to be no way to have additional color schemes in Dev C++. The existing ones are way too bland. Also, I am no good at colors, yet, it feels as if I don't have the control to choose enough colors in the Editor Options. Is there a workaround? Can anyone port '>this?
To write text color in Dev-C you can simply use the command system(“color xy”); Where x is the background color, y is the text color: But on the way back with an error if the entire set different color font color will be there, ie the colored letters that we finally put color. Dec 01, 2016 This time it’s about Graphical User Interface in C.NET (in this case, I don’t want to use native C). Okay, I assume that you have a little knowledge about C.NET GUI and of course, I also assume that you understand how to program in C CLR behaviour. So, here we go the tutorial!
Buenas, primer post Probablemente los usuarios avanzados ya lo sepan, pero muchos usuarios novatos de C preguntan como darle color a la consola (sin librerias graficas es una de las pocas cosas que se puede hacer para darle un toque mas user-friendly), para darle color a C hay dos formas. Nov 16, 2013 Colour Coding in C 15:37 By Usman Shery The first time i saw colour in c was amazing experience because just black and white stuff is more like old school comparing to modern software and technology. Colors are bit-encoded. If You want to change the Text color in C language There are many ways. In the console, you can change the properties of output.click this icon of the console and go to properties and change color. The second way is calling the system colors. Things don't have to be black and white all the time. Use a Windows API call to add some color to your text output.
Certainly some may say this is a lot of fuss over nothing. But, I believe its really important.

No one has an answer? Or is it that Dev C++ does not have such features. Tell me about a good editor (if not an IDE) which is good features and additional color scheme adding capability.

Nice...
How do you change the background color?
Pretty please?
And is there a way to make the program appear fullscreen when started up?

I have tried to use this in my program.
However when I used #include<windows.h> I get errors when I compile.
I am using the MSVisual 6.0 ???
on windows only:
system('color <put your colors here>');
colors the whole window and all text to any of the standard 16 colors
//0 = Black 8 = Gray
//1 = Blue 9 = Light Blue
//2 = Green a = Light Green
//3 = Aqua b = Light Aqua
//4 = Red c = Light Red
//5 = Purple d = Light Purple
//6 = Yellow e = Light Yellow
//7 = White f = Bright White
you put two characters, first one is background color, second is text color:
system('color c0'); //colors background to light red, with black text

ya, bakround color use . - system('color f0'); and #include <stdlib.h> it will make the bacround wight with black text for more color codes type 'color help' in cmd prompt. the first nuber ids the backround and the seconed is the text. also to start the consol in full screen send the keys alt and enter like this
keybd_event(VK_MENU, 0x38, 0, 0);
keybd_event(VK_RETURN, 0x1c, 0, 0);
keybd_event(VK_RETURN, 0X1c, KEYEVENTF_KEYUP, 0);
keybd_event(VK_MENU, 0x38, KEYEVENTF_KEYUP, 0);

Nice one :) the 'system' function...who'd have thought it :) Thanks!
To get all the system() commands (WINDOWS ONLY!), open up the command prompt (start>accessories>Command Prompt), and type 'help' (without the quotes). For help on a specific command, type 'help <command name>' (again, no quotes).
