(Answer) (Category) SCO comp.unix.sco.programmer FAQ. : (Category) Hardware related programming :
How can I write directly to the console like I do in DOS?
This is a degenerate case of the above question. As surely as you write your program to do this, someone will have an incompatible card, will want it to run under X, or will need it from a graphic or text terminal.

If your application is text, you should write your app to use curses(S). If it's graphical, coding it for X windows would be a better choice.

If you insist on doing it yourself, look for tls015.* ftp://ftp.sco.com/TLS/ . Just please don't do it in code you're going to distribute to others.
