Can I know what type of program you are attempting to make? Are you just experimenting with different functions? I just like knowing about things that I'm helping somebody with.

THANK YOU SO MUCH

He saved you so much time, you might even spare some to learn to spell 'you' and 'your', like a big boy

Of course it compiled

is this why you wanted to make the mouse move by itself?

???????????????????????????????????????

so you can click on the console window? try doing that yourself and see what happens.

we "press" enter, we don't "click" it.

do you want the mouse to float over in space and hit the the "enter" key for you?

most people are asking about how to create a power function or something like that, not weird shit like this.

I also had a similar question. How do i access internet resources in C++. For ex. I want it to get all the text on the page: http://www.mysite.com/mypage.php and store it in a string or anything like that.

Connect to the site and ask for the page, then filter the information with HTML libraries or you can make some simple one yourself, by just by filtering everything in chevrons. (You might get a mess on some pages, so just use a HTML library.) Connecting to the site can be done by libraries too of course.

If you get a chevron that's not a private, but a sergeant, raise an exception.

Hmm yeah, angle bracket then. :p

I guess that when a you get a private chevron, that you'll have to throw an exception.

I still have DOS programs like XTGold where you do move the mouse and click on the text. (I love the inverse of where your mouse position was used as a pointer)
However I do agree that you can't "Click" 5 whenever it's located on the keyboard

Shoot, I'm 65 and I don't have any of that crap, anymore. You sure do know a lot of languages! We'll be expecting beaucoup contributions.
