Title: graphics.h - Is it missing in Pelles C
Post by: boral on February 26, 2013, 02:56:18 PM

Being impressed by the features of Pelles C , I have advised one of my friends to use it. Today he said that Pelles C does not contain graphics.h .

Now my question is , Is this a bug in pelles C ?

This is a very old file for MS-DOS graphics in consolle mode (16 bits). Something resemblant was ported by Borland to 32bits.
Anyway should be no more available from long long time......

Frankie's right... that is wayyyy outdated.  Nowaday if you want graphics, you write a GUI mode program.
 
Almost nobody writes DOS or Console code anymore and absolutely nobody uses BGI graphics.
