Looking to open the Console, in full screen, when starting a Console program. Can not locate this information on any of the supplied documentation.

Got it figured out. PureBASIC has no such command, in ver 6.20, and I am using 64-bit Mode. Using my system's Windows API (windows 10) this works:

Import ""
GetConsoleWindow() ; No decoration needed
EndImport

OpenConsole()

hwnd = GetConsoleWindow()
ShowWindow_(hwnd, #SW_MAXIMIZE)

PrintN("Console window maximized.")
Input()

THANKS FOR YOR TIME

Hello !

Code: Select all

Import ""
GetConsoleWindow() ; No decoration needed
EndImport

OpenConsole()

hwnd = GetConsoleWindow()
ShowWindow_(hwnd, #SW_MAXIMIZE)

PrintN("Console window maximized.")
Input()
Did you see your source code between markups ?
Beautiful !

Thank you for the tip.
