I would like to know how to print texts at different positions using C program. I would like to split the screen into four quarters and I would like to print different set of values in each quarter.
For Example:
Data X will be printed in Quarter 1 and Data Y will be printed in Quarter 2,etc.
How do I achieve that on Linux platform?
Thanks,
Under linux the easiest way is to use ncurses. It’s GNU software, reliable and opensource. Check the links on the page.
You could also look at libyui, the toolkit used to develop YAST (opensuse), downloadable on sourceforge. I never used it but it would allow you to generate console UI and GUI (GTK+ and Qt) …
Just to be complete, you may also use a screen multiplexer, but this is out of the scope of your question.
