This used to be true before the boost library. If you use the boost threads
they use the native operating system threads and thus make it easy to port.
so grab the www.boost.org library for threads and that will work no matter
which OS you use.

Hello,
Well, C or c++ doesn't present a built in library to manage threads.
This means you will need to access the operating system native functions to
manage them, and this is different in each OS. There are OS that even don't
support threads, so if you are using one of them you will have to figure how
to simulate it, although modern operating systems like windows and most
ports of unix for most part of platforms have it. If you can give more
dtails we can provide help on how to do it.
About the beep function, where was one in borland turbo c++ for DOS, long
time ago. I don't know if it still works, but it shouldn't be hard to build
one ...

When you say "I wrote a program that crashed Windows," people just stare at
you blankly and say "Hey, I got those with the system, for free."
