HANDLE screen;
int textcolor = LIGHTGREEN;
int backgroundcolor = BLACK;
screen = GetStdHandle(STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE);
void TextColor(int fontcolor,int backgroundcolor,HANDLE screen)
{
int color_attribute;
color_attribute = backgroundcolor;
color_attribute = _rotl(color_attribute,4) | fontcolor;
SetConsoleTextAttribute(screen,color_attribute);
}

TextColor(textcolor,backgroundcolor ,screen); 
FillConsoleOutputAttribute(screen, _rotl(backgroundcolor,4) , 80 * 50,coord , &cWritten);


This works in Microsoft c++

It would be good if you take a screenshot of the output and add it here.

I would love to, but I do not have the program on my computer here, I simply remembered the code from school, and put it on here for people to show

It is more of a surprise I guess for them to know.

Loaded Baked Potato and Chicken Casserole

LOADED BAKED POTATO & CHICKEN CASSEROLE -
INGREDIENTS
2 lbs. chicken breasts, cubed or shredded
10-12 small red potatoes diced
1/2 cup olive oil
1 tsp. salt
1 TBS. freshly ground pepper
1/2 TBS. garlic powder
2 c. Mexican Blend Cheese (low fat for even healthier version)
1/2 c. crumbled bacon (delete for lower calorie version)
1/2 c. chopped green onion

DIRECTIONS
Preheat your oven to 475. In a large bowl, mix together olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder. Add the potatoes and coat with mixture. Place the potatoes into a greased baking dish, leave as much of the mix as possible. Bake potatoes for 1 hr. Flip the potatoes every 15-20 minutes. Check with a fork to ensure the potatoes are done. While the potatoes are baking, coat the chicken with the left over mixture and cook in a skillet over medium heat, until the chicken is done (no longer pink inside!) Once the potatoes are done, take them out of the oven and turn the oven temperature down to 400. Add the chicken, cheese, bacon & green onions. Put the casserole back in the oven and bake for 5 minutes or until cheese is melted. Can be served with low fat sour cream or ranch dressing -- optional)
