Bloodshed Dev-c++ Change Color

Jul 17, 2006  Even text color is non-portable. But many major OSs made the decision to provide the ability to change console text color. But I do not know of any who provided a way to change text size. With Dev C, you can change the text color by using the system's color.exe command, or the WinAPI's SetConsoleTextAttribute function.

I've already tried Resedit, and it just didn't work for me. And, I mean, AT ALL! It proved to be more than a headache, and since I keep all my C++ projects, I can always go back to the projects and correct my errors on my newer projects by referencing them.
I was using the Orwell update already, so yeah.
I am getting that Petzold book as a PDF right now. I was using The Forger's WIN32 API tutorial, and that was what messed me all up. I have a feeling that maybe it isn't accurate.
(On a side note, I hate Microsoft, so in no way in hell will I be learning any coding from them. The only reason I am using a windows computer is because I have no alternative. I had no computer for 6 years, and no internet for 8, so this is my savior. (Using other people's internet)).
Thanks for correcting the one slight error I made in the Winsock2_32 function call. I can't believe I made that, and the IDE let me get away with that!
But, as for the resource script, you only corrected me on lines I DID NOT ask you to help me with. I was getting an error on the second line, everything else was fine. (Still not compiling.)
