Hi there,

I am making a game and want the player to be able to name their character. I
want to be able to do this while in graphic mode.
I can ask for the input no problem using the textout() function, but how do
I let the player see what they are typing? If I use scanf they don't get to
see what they are typing while they type it.

Do I have to use gui routines? Setup dialog boxes and all that? Please help.

Thanks
