Re: Modified CP 1252 character set



Paul, that should be "chcp," not "chip."

Dear Edward
I have tried this in VDos and in VDosPlus but I see no change. What should I be looking for?

In autoexec.txt include:

chip 1252

In config.txt change

font = WhateverFontNameYouUse

to

font = -WhateverFontNameYouUse

with a minus sign immediately to the left of "Whatever"
This causes vDos to display line-draw characters instead of whatever characters are native to the font.

Again, not tested in vDosPlus.
