Overview of console.h

This header file contains one function
-
"ccommand," which helps you port a program that relies on command-line arguments.
-
"clrscr," clears the SIOUX window and flushes the buffer.
-
"getch" returns the keyboard character pressed when an ascii key is pressed
-
"InstallConsole" installs the Console package.
-
"kbhit" returns true if any keyboard key is pressed without retrieving the key
-
"ReadCharsFromConsole" reads from the Console into a buffer.
-
"RemoveConsole" removes the console package.
-
"__ttyname" Returns the name of the terminal associated with the file id. The unix.h function ttyname calls this function
-
"WriteCharsToConsole" writes a stream of output to the Console window.
NOTE
If you're porting a UNIX or DOS program, you might also need the functions in other UNIX compatibility headers.
