I suppose that the author's sentiment to QuickBasic was the main inspiration for this project. Nice thing.

Nice. This prompts me to make a CLI graphics library. Looks pretty neat.

This is very nice.
Reminiscent of DOS apps. Mouse handling would be a nice addition, I think  |

Nice to hear!
Sure, it seems that an improper call to SetConsoleOutputCP function crush the program. By the way, i installed Windows 7. |
