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

Unfortunately, after entering the following: display con=(ega,850,1) mode con cp prep=((850) C:\freedos\cpi\ega.cpx) There was no alteration in the displaying of "ã". On Thu, Apr 25, 2024 at 3:43 PM Jim Hall via Freedos-user < freedos-user@lists.sourceforge.net> wrote: > Davi Ramos wrote: >

I tried the commands. "MODE CON CP SELECT=858" and "MODE CON CP SELECT=850". The "ã" still displays as that weird character. On Thu, Apr 25, 2024 at 3:39 PM Vacek Nules via Freedos-user < freedos-user@lists.sourceforge.net> wrote: > Hi Davi, > > Your codepage is probably set to CP437, which does

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

Let me suggest the following hypothesis: Your FreeDOS and graphical hardware is running with the HW-default code page, known as Code Page 437. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_page_437 Whereas, you're trying to display text encoded in CP850. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_page_850 CP850,

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

Hi Davi, Your codepage is probably set to CP437, which does not contain the "ã" character. Change your codepage to CP850 (or CP858 if you also need the Euro sign) and try again. Cheers, Vacek Robert Riebisch via Freedos-user ezt írta (időpont: 2024. ápr. 25., Csü 20:29): > Hi Davi, > > > The

The "ã" is a very common character in Portuguese. It shows up in words such as "não", "alçapão", and "órgão". 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",
