C++ Divide Console

[kwakkwak]

Hello there!
I was wondering is there any way to divide the console.Let me be more clear, think of something like mirc, the main screen has the chat thing going on, and on the bottom there is this one line where u can type. Anyone has an idea if this is possible in the console? And if so, how? Any help is appreciated! Cheers!

Hello,

look out for the GNU ncurses library.

I've never used it, but they say that the program screen works quite well for this.

Do this at the command line:

man screen

If man pages are not installed on your system, google this:

linux man screen

And whether or not you have man pages, google this:

Hope this helps.
