Re: [Freedos-user] Russian by UTF-8 in FreeDOS...
Thank you very much for FoxType! I really need some DOS viewer which can show combined czech/russian text files. The support for czech chars isn't perfect yet, however. And I have a suspision that the russian big K (К) isn't shown (The small one is). So please, add the missing czech chars: áéíóúůýěščřžňďť and ÁÉÍÓÚŮÝĚŠČŘŽŇĎŤ And at last would be very welcome to speed up this program.

Re: [Freedos-user] Russian by UTF-8 in FreeDOS?
Hi Mateusz, basically, the difference between the many codepages suitable for russian is that they are suitable for other languages as well. cp771 and 772, for instance, are meant to assist both lithuanian and russian while cp872 and 855 are meant for serbian, macedonian and russian. As far as I know, cp866 is the most commonly used codepage for russian; cp808 was a slight IBM enhancement for russian users to have the Euro sign. With the exception of cp872 and cp855, all 3-, 4- and 5-digit cyrillic codepages present the russian letters in the same codepoints where they are found on cp866. (Please remember that while you continue to read this message.) 3-digit and 4-digit codepages available for FreeDOS exactly match their major industry counterparts. That means that, for instance, FreeDOS cp866 is identical to MS-DOS cp866 or IBM-DOS cp866. In what regards 5-digit codepages (for instance, cp61282), they present encodings not provided by the major industry on those days. Codepages on the 3 range (cp3 ~ cp30030) were designed by me, in accordance to an idea I discussed with Jim Hall a long time ago: FreeDOS could fill the gap left by the major industry. There are several languages which were never assisted. Among them, the official languages of all the 21 russian republics. Codepages out of that range (for instance, cp61282) are actually encodings used by programmers on those days which needed to type languages for which there was no support by the major industry as well. I have run their programs, analyzed the contents of the codepoints and encoded new codepages. cp61282, for instance, is meant to assist latvian and russian. It seems that encoding was named RusLat on those days. Actually, when I provided 5-digit codepages like those (I mean, out of the 3 range), I wanted them to be temporary. If anyone told me that there was a major-industry-official (3- or 4-digit) codepage provided by MS, IBM or anyone else to assist any language, I would have liked to receive a message detailing its encoding and its 3- (or 4-)digit CP number. If you want details, the documentation which you already browsed can tell you which codepage is meant for which language(s). If you want even more details or want to discuss suggestions, please contact me directly; my e-mail address is found on the documentation. I know that there are several languages for which I still didn't provide support; just bear in mind that, for the time being, I can only handle plain-and-simple, left-to-right alphabets requiring no special handling, such as the latin, cyrillic, greek, georgian and armenian alphabets.

Re: [Freedos-user] Russian by UTF-8 in FreeDOS?
Hi Arkady, thanks for the information on the USSR's 15 republics; however, according to information I found in the web, Russia comprehends nowadays 21 republics (республики), 48 regions (областей), 7 territories (краёв), 9 autonomous districts (автономных округов), 1 autonomous province (автономная область) and 2 federal cities (города федерального значения), Moscow and Saint Petersburg. Also according to the same source (Wikipedia), 6 former non-republics were promoted into republics after the dissolution of the Soviet Union: 1) Adygea, on July 3, 1991 (It was a region) 2) Khakassia received republic status on 1991. Other regions received republic status on the last days of the Soviet Union, perhaps for a very short period of time before turning into republics of the new Russian Federation. Anyway, you're russian, I am not; perhaps the source I found is either outdated or simply wrong.

Re: [Freedos-user] Russian by UTF-8 in FreeDOS?
Hi Arkady, Yes, 808. IBM-DOS has released that CP on those old IBM-DOS days. It is an enhancement over cp866. It provides the Euro sign on codepoint FDh instead of the international currency sign. All the rest is the same. Because of the Euro sign, IBM-DOS codepages were adopted instead of their MS-DOS counterparts as official for the following languages on FreeDOS. In some cases, the CPxxx number is the same, but the IBM-DOS codepages presented the Euro sign on codepoints which were left blank on their MS-DOS counterparts: 1) Codepage 808 for Russian instead of cp866 (IBM-DOS/MS-DOS Cyrillic II); 2) Codepage 858 for Latin-1 (Western Europe) instead of cp850 (IBM-DOS/MS-DOS Latin-1); 3) Codepage 872 for serbian and macedonian instead of cp855 (IBM-DOS/MS-DOS Cyrillic); 4) Codepage 848 for ukrainian instead of cp1125 (IBM-DOS/MS-DOS Ukrainian); 5) Codepage 849 for belarusian instead of cp1131 (IBM-DOS/MS-DOS Belarusian); 6) IBM-DOS codepage 852 was adopted instead of MS-DOS cp852 for Latin-2 (Central Europe); 7) IBM-DOS codepage 857 was adopted instead of MS-DOS cp857 for Latin-5 (with turkish letters replacing icelandic ones); 8) IBM-DOS codepage 869 was adopted instead of MS-DOS cp869 for Greek; 9) When the time comes, IBM-DOS codepage 856 will be adopted instead of MS-DOS cp856 for Hebrew; 10) When the time comes, IBM-DOS codepage 864 will be adopted instead of MS-DOS cp864 for Arabic.

Hi Arkady, Here I am sending to you the links to the binary utilities, (both exec and source) with the latest versions. Both have accompaining information files. Some KEYB documentation may deem a bit incomplete, the ability for hot switching layouts and/or codepages (for example in Russian to skip from Latin to Cyrilic alphabets) (and also the support for Japanese keyboards) made things a bit more complex, and I know that the KEYB data files documentation is definitely to be improved. For the data files (that is, codepage files for DISPLAY, layout files for KEYB), I let this to Henrique, who knows better than me.

Re: [Freedos-user] Russian by UTF-8 in FreeDOS?
Hi Fox, Unfortunately, I can't tell you anything about UTF-8. The following info goes for the regular codepage approach. It should work for you in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file: DISPLAY CON=(,,3) MODE CON CODEPAGE PREPARE=((858,852) C:\FDOS\BIN\EGA.CPX) MODE CON CODEPAGE PREPARE=((,,808) C:\FDOS\BIN\EGA3.CPX) Then, you'll type MODE CON CODEPAGE SELECT=858 for french or 852 for polish or 808 for russian. If you use FreeDOS KEYB, you'll run KEYB like that: * For russian, according to your keyboard: KEYB RU,,KEYBRD2.SYS or KEYB RU,,KEYBRD2.SYS /ID:443 * For polish, according to your keyboard: KEYB PL or KEYB PL /ID:214 * For french: KEYB FR (If you have a plain-and-simple US-layout keyboard, you'll run KEYB UX,,KEYBRD3.SYS instead). If you need to print data and your printer does not provide cp858 and cp808, trade them for cp850 and cp866, respectively. All you'll miss is the Euro sign. If your printer's cp852 meets MS-DOS instead of IBM-DOS standards, you'll see empty spaces where you would expect to see the Euro sign. Please refer to the documentation available on DISPLAY, MODE, the codepage and keyboard layout packages for further details and if you still run into trouble, please contact me.

Hi, you are right. It can convert many codepages (tools menu), but not UTF8... :-( Bye Flo Hi Flo, I checked Setedit, but it seems to deal just with the LF/CR problem, and my problem consist basically in the translation of UTF8 to a human-readable text under DOS... :( -- Florian Xaver http://www.flox.at.tf Dr-DOS Wiki http://www.drdos.org oZone-a GUI operating system for DOS,Linux,Win SWORD-a nice GUI library for DOS/DJGPP http://www.flox.at.tf Using Tomcat but need to do more?
