: Can anyone please tell me why textcolor isn't working, and ScreenGetCursor
: seems to return y and y instead of x and y?

: The prog below prints "hello" 16 times all in the same color, then "11 11".

:        #include <stdio.h>
:        #include <pc.h>

:        main() {
:                int i,*x,*y;

x and y point anywhere.

:                for (i=0;i<16;i++) {
:                        textcolor(i);
:                        printf("\nhello");
:                }

:                ScreenSetCursor(5,11);
:                ScreenGetCursor(x,y);

Here you let ScreenGetCursor() overwrite whatever x and y point to.

:                printf("%d %d",*x,*y);
:        }


Right,
