I have found a way of doing this. If you put:
int i;
for (i=0;i<50;i++)
cout << "\n" << endl;
on the top of the text where the screen should be deleted, en put this:
int i;
for (i=0;i<??;i++)
cout << "\n" << endl;
on the bottom of the text, then you should fill in 24-the rows of text=??
So if you have 4 rows of text on the screen, do this:
int i;
for (i=0;i<20;i++)
cout << "\n" << endl;
this would let you scroll down, so the text is at the top of the screen.
I now it's not a good way of clearing the screen, but it's possible in this
way!!
(Sorry for my bad english!!).
Hope you guys now a better way for doing this!!
Thanx.
