- Can anybody explain to me why I can no longer compose extended characters
- (like French e acute and so) by using my alt-key and some code? Is this
- because I upgraded to DOS 5.0 or because of some TSR that I am running or
- what? (I'm adding a copy of my autoexec.bat and config.sys) And how do I
- get back that capability? Any help would be greatly appreciated
-
- Here comes my autoexec.bat:
-
- echo off
- ver
- enhkbd
- set esppro=c:\retc\esppro
- set editor=c:\rbin\esp.exe
- set comspec=c:\command.com
- set pcplus=c:\pcm
- astclock/m
- sotacach /hard on /dos 16

- ALARM -K 3
- explosiv -
- nc

- And this is my config.sys:
-
- shell=c:command.com /E:512 /P
- device=ansi.sys
