  : Hello everybody!
  :
  : I have written a simple program (in C, compiled with cc.exe -> win...) that uses _gotoxy() and _textcolor() functions and now i am trying to compile it in Linux with gcc but i haven't found conio.h library in the "include" directory...
  : exist similar functions/libraries or an alternative method??
  :
  :
  : Thank you very much!
  
  conio.h isn't ANSI standard so it isn't available on Linux. Please read http://www.bloodshed.net/dev/faq.html for more information.

  The library you are looking for is called ncurses
