Hello all, i just bought a copy of borland c++ version 5.0 and I have
a question or two.
Keep in mind that this is an upgrade from Trubo C++ 4.5 for windows 3.1
If I would make a simply console program that simply outputted some results, 
as I often need to do in my C++ class, Turbo C++ would compile the program 
into a console app that would run, terminate, and remain on the screen 
inactivly until I closed it.  With BC5, the app closes as soon as it 
teminates, so I do not get a change to see my output.  
I can of course add an pause at the end of the program, but then I have to 
remove it before turning in my program.  Is there a way to get BC5 to leave 
the window on the screen when the program terminates?
A second question, I noticed that it now makes simple console programs into 
DOS programs instead of windows programs, this is great, but is there a way 
to have the program ran in full-screen mode?  I know that I can later run the 
executable in full screen mode, but what about when BC5 runs it?
Anyway, the second question is not that important, I am mainly looking for a 
way to have BC5 automatically leave the window on the screen as it did with 
trubo C++ 4.5 (win)
thanks for any responses.
