The _cputs function writes the null-terminated string pointed to by string directly to the console. A carriage return–linefeed (CR-LF) combination is not automatically appended to the string.
Example
/* CPUTS.C: This program first displays
* a string to the console.
*/
#include <conio.h>
void main( void )
{
/* String to print at console.
* Note the \r (return) character.
*/
char *buffer = "Hello world (courtesy of _cputs)!\r\n";
_cputs( buffer );
}
Output
Hello world (courtesy of _cputs)!
