       MarcL> My system is set up with the Codepage = 850/437, but I have        MarcL> problems displaying characters like "o" umlaut. What are my        MarcL> alternatives to be able to display the diacriticals?              edit your config.sys and change               CODEPAGE=850,437              to               CODEPAGE=437,850              i went thru the install process so many times that i finally found this during       that process and changed it to 437,850 there... the only thing i see that may       otherwise cause some sort of problems would be the tcpip nlspath which       specifically looks for the enus850 directory but that's the only one in my       setup so maybe it doesn't matter since i made the change during the install       and not afterwards as you are fixing to do ;)              i searched for 850 in my config.sys and those are the only two places i find       it...              )\/(ark               * Origin: (1:3634/12)    |
