Turbo C 2.0

[Heinrich Wolf]

Hi,

I tried a simple thing with my old Turbo C 2.0 on Windows XP:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <conio.h>

int main(void)
{
char Buffer[2];
clrscr();
textcolor(RED);
puts("RED");
fgets(Buffer, sizeof(Buffer), stdin);
}

But "RED" is written lightgray on black.
textcolor() is not working.
What am I missing?

kind regards
Heiner

I found out
puts("RED");
must be replaced by
cprintf("RED");
putchar('\n');
