- Subject: Cyrillic Code Page 866
-
- To use CP 866 (al'ternativnyj variant) and also 880 (GOST) under MS-DO 3.30 or
- later, EGA or VGA, uudecode the CP866.UUE file, unzip the resulting ZIP file,
- add this to your CONFIG.SYS:
-
- DEVICE=C:\DOS\DISPLAY.SYS CON:=(EGA,437,(2,3))
-
- (You have to say 'EGA' even if you're really using a VGA. 2 is the number of
- code pages you are going to load; increase this number if you want to load
- other pages. 3 is the number of font variants; 3 is for VGA (16, 14 and 8
- pixels high); 2 is for EGA (only 14 and 8).)
-
- Add the following to your AUTOEXEC.BAT:
-
- MODE CON CP PREPARE=((880) XTRA.CPI)
- MODE CON CP SELECT=880
- KEYBRUn,
-
- replacing 880 by 866 if you like. n=1,2,3,4: various keyboard drivers for 880
- or 866 and GOST or phonetic key layout. Have fun. (I'm not enclosing the
- source codes to the rasters because they're huge.)
