Help is often run when the user is having problems
setting up FreeDOS. Their codepage could be incorrect.
Help should be robust in such circumstances. It would
be great if I could detect the codepage, rather than
assume it. Is there a DOS interrupt or something that
could do this?
Kitten: as I understand it then, the use of correct
ASCII character codes is left up to those who create
the catalogues - the program does not interfere with
this and just treats the message return by kitten as
plain text. Makes sense.
The kitten messages would hence not benefit from
detecting the code page. That said, help could run the
character entity parsing code on kitten messages. This
would allow charater entities to be used in the kitten
messages. Good/bad idea?
Is there somewhere I can find an ASCII character map
for each code page? It would save Eric the ordeal of
sending me a transcription ;-)

Rob
