That did it! "ã" and other tilde-accentuated characters are displaying perfectly now. Thanks! Although I cannot say I understand the fix, it did work and now all tilde-accentuated characters work fine everywhere in FreeDOS. I had to change "fdos" to "freedos" since that is how the directory is

1. I enter "ã" by typing the "~ ^" followed by the "a" key. Resulting in "ã". 2. Yes, it is a separate key on my keyboard. By itself, that key will generate the tilde. With shift, it generates the "little hat" (circumflex), which is used in words such as "ângulo" or "acadêmico". The circumflex

Hi Robert and Davi, The system's keyboard and layout are already configured to "br" (for Brazilian Portuguese) and working perfectly. Other accentuated characters display just fine. That is the case of "á", "à", "ô". However, "ã" shows as something else entirely. Image below: oIh6TW8.png How
