exswitch(3)			 Allegro manual 		     exswitch(3)

NAME
     exswitch  - Controlling the console switch mode for background running. Al-
     legro game programming library.

SYNOPSIS
     #include <allegro.h>

     Example exswitch

DESCRIPTION
     This program shows how to control the console switching mode, and let  your
     program  run  in the background. These functions don't apply to every plat-
     form and driver, for example you can't control the switching  mode  from  a
     DOS program.

     Yes, I know the fractal drawing is very slow: that's the point!  This is so
     you can easily check whether it goes on working in the background after you
     switch away from the app.

     Depending	on the type of selected switching mode, you will see whether the
     contents of the screen are preserved or not.
