As your first assignment this semester, you are to write a multi-platform direct terminal library and later use that library to create a text editor. Assignment One is done individually! Each student must complete and hand her/his own work, no collaboration permitted for this part.
==Console Input Output Library ==
====int io_flag(..........)====
<big>int io_flag(const char '''*format''', int '''row''', int '''col''', int'''* status''', int '''radio''');</big>
io_flag() allows the user to make a single true/false selection. '''"status" ''' points to the status of the selection, that can be zero or non-zero. If '''"*status" ''' is initially set to anything but zero, io_flag() corrects value to one. '''"format" ''' holds the shape of the checkbox as io_displayflag() function.
io_flag() begins the selection by displaying the checkbox according to its '''“*status”'''. (Remember that the value of '''"*status" ''' is corrected before the editing begins). Then the function waits for the user input.
*If the user input is any of the printable keys (' ' < key <= '~') excluding space, it should be ignored (no action taken). If the user input is any of the function keys, the function is terminated returning the key.
*If the user input is SPACE:
**If '''“radio” ''' is true, then the '''"*status "''' is set to one, checkbox is displayed and function is terminated returning space.**If '''“radio” ''' is false, then the value of '''"*status "''' is toggled between 0 and 1, the checkbox is displayed and function is exited returning space.
====void io_displayMenuItem(..........)====
<big>void io_displayMenuItem(const char '''*format''', const char '''*menuItem''', int '''row''', int '''col''', int '''len''', int '''status''');</big>
Allows the user to display a menu-item at '''row ''' and '''col ''' on the screen with width of '''len'''. Depending on the value of '''status'''; being zero or non-zero, the menu-item will be surrounded by '''format '''characters or space respectively.
The '''menuItem ''' argument will be always shown surrounded by two characters.* <u>If status is zero</u>, then at '''row ''' and '''col ''' a <u>space </u> will be shown, then the '''menuItem ''' followed by another <u>space</u>. If the length of '''menuItem ''' is less than (len-2), then enough spaces will be printed up to make the length (len-2).
<pre>"Hello"</pre> with 10 as len will be printed as : <pre>" Hello "</pre>
====int io_menuItem(..........)====
<big>int io_menuItem(const char '''*format''', const char '''*menuItem''', int '''row''', int '''col''', int '''len''', int'''* status''');</big>
io_menuItem() allows the user to make a single item selection. '''"*status" ''' points to the status of the selection, that can be zero or non-zero. If '''"*status" ''' is initially set to anything but zero, io_menuItem() corrects value to one. '''"*format" ''' holds the shape of the selection indicator as io_displayMenuItem() function.
io_menuItem() begins the selection by displaying the menu item according to its '''“*status” ''' using [[#void_io_displayMenuItem.28...........29|io_displayMenuItem()]]. (Remember that the value of '''"*status" ''' is corrected before the editing begins). Then the function waits for the user input.
*If the user input is any of the printable keys (' ' < key <= '~') excluding space, it should be ignored (no action taken). If the user input is any of the function keys, the function is terminated returning the key.
