Run C++ Compiler Fullscreen in Windows 7

Run C++ Compiler Fullscreen in Windows 7

 

This is a big question for those who are still using Turbo C++ Version 3.0 in Windows Vista and Win 7. As everyone knows that full screen is not supported with the version 3.0 in Vista and windows7 it is ridiculous to work in the small screen where I think no one can ever imagine writing a program there! This solution will help all the C, C++ learners using TC++ 3.0 in Vista and Windows 7.

Now lets trick this...
There are 2ways:

1. By changing the Properties

So now after opening the CMD, now click on the logo image of CMD at left top corner of the window, you wil be opened with a set of Options. Now click on Properties.

Now a window will be opened. Change the parameters as in the image:

And now goto Layout tab and change as:

Now click OK and thats it now you have a full screen CMD, now open Compiler and continue your Programming.

 

2. Using DOS Box tool

DOSBox is a DOS-emulator that uses the SDL-library which makes DOSBox very easy to port to different platforms. DOSBox has already been ported to many different platforms, such as Windows, BeOS, Linux, MacOS X.

So after downloading this tool you will be needed to mount the harddrive which has the Compiler in it..

First Open the DOS BOX application which will be same as our Command Prompt window.
Now type in,

MOUNT C C:\TC\BIN\

 Here C is the name of the Drive and C:\TC\BIN\ is the address where the compiler is located.

Now Just type TC and hit ENTER and thats it now you have a full screen Compiler in Win7 or Win Vista.
