Probably not right now...  it's not so much as knowing C,  it's knowing the ins 
and out of knowing how your operating system (Windows, Linux, etc) interfaces 
with your hardware (display, mouse, serial port, keyboard).   Basically, if you 
have to ask the question,  your are probably not ready to attempt the task.
Lady Heather is a pretty simple program,  but it is rather long and divided 
into 5 files.  Just getting set up to compile it in a new environment can be 
quite a challenge to the un-initiated (acouple of toupees worth of hair pulling 
once you can compile and link a simple "hello world" program.  
Then you need to figure out how to draw dots and characters,  talk to the 
serial port,  talk to the mouse, talk to the keyboard.   Pretty basic stuff 
once you are familiar with your operating system/environment,  but not 
something most people do everyday...
