Hello all,
I'd like to know if there is a way to graphics programming on GNU/Linux .. something very similar to what I'd do in C on windows using Borland C. Just some basic graphic programming .. output of which could be displayed in the terminal or something.
Thanks in advance
Cheers Abhijeet

Did you mean like C on DOS? If you want stuff that primitive then look at svgalib. If you want stuff that's displayed in the windowing system, then look at opengl.
You could also have a look at aalib for something cool.
Next time run a web search before asking a question.

In addition to svgalib, try ncurses.

Also, unlike TurboC, you don't have the lucury of using BGI Graphics... BGI belongs to Borland and isn't a ANSI C standard. However, for purposes of writing screensavers and simple games or graphing... I think the svgalib library should suffice.
