Re: Screen disappears immediately

By the way blrjohn, you could also try and fire up a console and execute your program from there. It won't disappear then. I dunno on which OS you are, but guessing it's Windows (80% market share or something eh):

Go to:

Start -> Run

type in "cmd"

Hit enter.

Behold the almighty black screen with often blinking cursor!

Typing in "cd" and then a path will let you change your directory. Type in "help" if you're in need of more help. Mastering the console is pretty convenient for developers.

Do you think every one in the world uses the same copiler/IDE that you use?
Your suggestions are not an improvement upon what it has been discussed already.
