Need Help on Brick Game graphics

Im currently writing a brick game (ala Tetris). Problem with it is the graphics.

How do I enable graphics? I just need simple shapes, nothing fancy. I read somewhere that graphics.h library is required but it seems that my compiler doesnt have it. Any advice as to how I can go about this?

There are several graphics libraries for C(++) around. I assume you want something fancy, not plain old dos graphics, so I'd suggest the SDL library.

Note: none of the graphics libraries are standard (ANSI) C, so you'll never be 100% portable, unless the library is...

Hmmm...contains a lot of help (heck it even has instructions specific for my compiler)

Im currently studying a code that uses vcl.h
Any ideas as where to find this library?
