+I am trying to program a game that was origianlly going to be for DOS until

+I thought I had found the perfect solution when I found functions like
+cprintf and window and clrscr, etc. in the conio.h library however, they
+won't work.
+
+#include<conio.h>
+
+int main(void)
+{
+ clrscr();
+ window(10, 10, 20, 20);
+ cprintf("Hello world\r\n");
+ getch();
+ return 0;
+}
+
+This program gives me these warnings and errors:
+Warning WINDOW.C 6: Call to function 'window' with no prototype in function
+main
+Warning WINDOW.C 7: Call to function 'cprintf' with no prototype in function
+main
+Linker Error: Undefined symbol _cprintf in module WINDOW.C
+Linker Error: Undefined symbol _window in module WINDOW.C
+
+I think I have all my directories set up right, (all my other functions
+work fine with calls to other libraries).
+
+Might this have something to do with me running all this under Win95? Is there
+something else I need to do to get these to work? I tried putting in
+prototypes for these functions but that only got rid of the warnings.
+
+Please help me....
+
Compiles clean for me. Check your compiler switches.
