You wrote djgpp mailing list regarding a problem with a "spinning cursor"
problem.

A mistakes you had was "For" instead of "for" which probably was the main 
problem you where having.  I also increased the nubmer of times it would 
display because at 100 I didn't notice much at all.

Here's the code revised which should work under djgpp (I tried it under 
gcc 2.7.2.1 under Linux).

#include <stdio.h>
 
void main(void)
{
 
  int c;
 
  for(c=0; c<10000; c++)
  {
      printf("\\\b");
      printf("|\b");
      printf("/\b");
      printf("-\b");
  }
 
}
