CHCP [nnn]                                                       [new DOS 3.3]

CHCP is an internal command that selects the current code page that DOS and 
the monitor, printer, and keyboard will use. To select a different code page 
for a specific device, use MODE.

       CHCP [nnn]

[nnn] specifies the code page to use, if omitted the code page currently in
    use is displayed. A list of possible code page values is given in the
    NEW_TERMS CODE_PAGE CODES topic.

The NLSFUNC command (see CONFIG.SYS INSTALL NLSFUNC.EXE) needs to be run 
before the CHCP command will work. Some peripherals may need to have a list
of code pages prepared by the MODE command before using the CHCP command. A

    COUNTRY=ccc

line may also be needed in the CONFIG.SYS file. See the NEW_TERMS CODE_PAGE
USE topic for information about installing and using code pages.
