All drivers from AD_DRV family are tested with the different types
of software, such as DesqView, Microsoft Word, Norton Commander,
MultiEdit and others. Universal driver (AD_DRVU.COM) supports ALL
modes for Microsoft Word or Word Perfect. No bugs were found in it,
but if you find any, then send message to developer (addresses are
in read.me). For switching from one mode to another, you have to
use Right Control Key. Using special methods Right Control hasn't
lost its special "control" purpose. ONLY pressing and depressing
Right Control itself will switch from one language to another. You
can unload driver from memory, if you don't need it, using followed
keys:
Available keys for unloading AD_DRV are: /U or -U
/R or -R
/K or -K
Don't worry, if you have loaded AD_DRV in HighRAM (UMB) by command
like LOADHIGH AD_DRV or another similar command. Now AD_DRV can
unload itself even from UMB using handshake technics. Just type
common unload key, and AD_DRV will be unloaded.
Any driver from AD_DRV package can support border around text in
ukrainian mode. It seems convenient while you are working with both
ukrainian and latinic characters, so you need in precise
information about current set of characters. You can choose
desirable color of border while loading AD_DRV from command string
with key:
Key for choosing of color of border: /Bcolor or -Bcolor
Example: if you want to use blue border, type AD_DRV /B1
The number of color correspond the number of appropriate color of
DOS. Here is the list of colors:
0 Black (default)
1 Blue
2 Green
3 Cyan
4 Red
5 Magenta
6 Brown
7 Lightgray
Some video adaptors, especially VGA, supports light color of
border. Then you can use additional colors from the following list:
8 DarkGray
9 LightBlue
A LightGreen
B LightCyan
C LightRed
D LightMagenta
E Yellow
F White
If you want to change the color of border, then you must first of
all unload AD_DRV, and then reload it with new meaning of color.
Keyboard layout and code table used by AD_DRV drivers are the so
called "State Ukrainian Standart Table of Coding", which is based
upon standard 866 code table. Now there are a standard layout and
code table for all ukrainian stuff. The layout of keyboard is the
following:
` 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 - =
≤ ! " # $ : , . ; ( ) - =
~ ! @ # $ % ^ & * ( ) _ +

WARNING: AD_DRV is not designed for cyrillizing of Windows or
another operating system, although there is no problem with AD_DRV
in DOS window of OS/2 and DOS window of Windows or even in DOS
window of NeXT. Windows use their own fonts and keyboard handler.
Work of AD_DRV under Windows is senseless. For cyrillizing of
Windows you MUST use special system like Cyrwin or consult with
author (Jiri) for obtaining a freeware version of keyboard driver
for Windows.
Possible problems: if you are using detector of TSR's, like
RELEASE.COM, then some kind of damage can be occured while
unloading by means of AD_DRV itself. In this case you must unload
it ONLY by means of RELEASE.COM, or don't use RELEASE at all.
Although author found problems with using originally russian
Ventura Publisher Professional Extension, it's not error of AD_DRV,
because of VP uses it's own handler of keyboard interrupt. So you
have to use special keyboard driver VPKBD.COM. For obtaining
keyboard driver please contact author. Enjoy this freeware AD_DRV
package!
