    console in full-screen mode

    Hi there !
    I'm trying to make a little program for a "friend" of mine and i don't know how to make the console window to start in full-screen...
    that program is stand-alone, it does not have any interface, so it must do the full-screening itself...
    and eventually freeze the windows (ME)

    Thanks !

    I think people are a little leary of your purpose for this. So I imagine that is why your not getting an answer

    There is undocumented SetConsoleDisplayMode.
    first par - HANDLE
    second - 1 for full screen
    third - pointer on dword for old mode.
