There seems to be a $_layout = de without dead keys and a $_layout =
de_latin1 which uses dead keys.
Interestingly it works on an other computer with
dosemu-1.2.2.0. I suspect it is again some slang mystery. Therefore I
attached my config.log. Which slang library should I use for compiling?
The slang is ok, probably. There were problems with utf8-enabled slang
(which you reported a long time ago) and the configure script checks for
those.
Only in the CVS any slang is ok now, as DOSEMU was fixed to deal with UTF8
terminals. A nice thing about UTF8 is that it allows us to show all the
funny DOS text symbols (pseudo graphics), including the card suits and
smileys even in terminal mode if the right font is loaded.
But dosemu crashes when it tries do delete the java directories with the long
java file names. I attached the last lines of the boot.log.
It is the same with dosemu-1.2.2.0 as with dosemu-1.3.1. Once it even killed

This looks like an MFS bug. Can you try to compile with
make distclean
./default-configure -d
make
and retry? The gdb backtrace will be much more useful then.

Long file names and Alt-Gr characters
Hi all!
Again I am having problems with some special characters: with dosemu-1.2.2.0
and dosemu-1.3.1 I can´t get a backslash \ or other characters like [, ],
{,}, and @ with cp850. It seems all characters which use Alt-Gr in German
keyboard layout don't work. Interestingly it works on an other computer with
dosemu-1.2.2.0. I suspect it is again some slang mystery. Therefore I
attached my config.log. Which slang library should I use for compiling?
Another problem came up because we have to use a java program from within the
dosemu file system. The installation process works fine with unix ...
allthough you get problems with the unix directories and the dos directories.
That's solved somehow.
But dosemu crashes when it tries do delete the java directories with the long
java file names. I attached the last lines of the boot.log.
It is the same with dosemu-1.2.2.0 as with dosemu-1.3.1. Once it even killed
