> how can I move cursor position to row 3 and column 3? If so, Java is definitely the wrong tool for the job! This is the kind of thing you do by directly accessing the memory-mapped I/O area in DOS (at B800:0000 in text mode) and is therefore a job for assembly or inline assembly (some vendors, like Borland had additional nifty features in conio.h and dos.h for this, too). The old Norton Utility called Batch Edit would allow you to put colored text at specific parts of a DOS screen with a command like this: If you need to do screen-scraping, then there are lots of legacy tools that do it, but if you want to write it yourself, you'll have to find an old DOS programming book, or hire a contractor who knows how to do such things... - mfg Replies: |
