Hi, > The idea is that after you've load it all (DISPLAY, KEYB, NLSFUNC, > ...), your only had to work it out with CHCP:
> CHCP 850 True. With a kernel that supports it. If not, you do this: LH DISPLAY CON=(EGA,,1) MODE CON CP PREP=((858) D:\FDOS\cpi\EGA.CPX) MODE CON CP SEL=858 (in autoexec.bat) That switches only the font. To select German date/time format: COUNTRY=049,437 (in config.sys) To select German keyboard layout: LH KEYB GR,,keyboard.sys or alternatively: LH MKEYB GR Needs more commands than CHCP but you only have to put it into config / autoexec anyway ;-). And to use CHCP you first have to load the rest in config / autoexec, too... Does not make much difference. Difference for you is: - for chcp you need a kernel from the "unstable" kernel branch - with chcp you can easily change settings at the prompt... Chcp is most useful for people who use several codepages often.
