Hi! (It's probably on your internal to-do list already.)
If I select German language (and German keyboard) during install, SvarDOS should put COUNTRY=049,,C:\SVARDOS\BIN\COUNTRY.SYS to CONFIG.SYS. Related: SvarDOS should also ask for the code page I want to use. For German, valid values would be 437, 850, or 858. Just asking the user to enter one of these values is probably not clear enough for newbies. I think, you need at least an additional line or column for shortly describing the differences between these code pages and to give a recommendation. For newbies I recommend 858, because it has a real € symbol for the currency. (Personally, I prefer 437 for its box-drawing characters. see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_page_850) The resulting CONFIG.SYS line would be "COUNTRY=049,858,C:\SVARDOS\BIN\COUNTRY.SYS". I guess, this is not new to you, but you were to lazy until now. Also related: Notice, that current kernel.sys and country.sys have bugs.
