Hello,
I am the researh assistant in Eastern Mediterranean University, and i am doing
master in computer engineering department. About the adaptation of linux with
other operating systems, i have a problem. if you can help me, i will be very
happy.
</STRONG></P>
<P><STRONG>
I have a program that is written in C and my operating system is linux now.
This program has been done before on dos operating system, (it includes
stdio.h, stdlib.h, conio.h, etc..). so, if i want to run this program, linux
can not find conio.h. (there is no such library file in linux)
Could you help me for this. i wonder, is there any correspondingfile in linux
that can do the functions of conio.h? The only chance isto include this
corresponding file to my program.
</STRONG></P>

&lt;Smile&gt; I certainly hope that it's not the <EM>only</EM> chance. If you take a
look at the very top of "conio.h" on a DOS machine, you'll probably see
something like the following (this is from the "conio.h" that came with
the old Borland Turbo-C):

<blockquote><pre>/*	conio.h

That's why there's none in the standard C 'include's for Linux: it's a
DOS-specific library! Now, I've done very little C programming in the last
few years - mostly just little quick things - so I haven't had to deal with
any fancy console stuff, and no need for anything like "conio.h". If I did,
the library that is commonly used in Linux for console I/O is "curses.h".
Take a look at libncurses5-dev; you'll have to do a bit of rewriting, since
Linux handles console I/O differently from DOS, but it shouldn't be too
bad.

Good luck!
