(i.e. > some of the characters which should be lines are Latin-1 characters (various > 'A's, etc..), (r) marks, etc etc... You mean for DOS shells running in windows? Yeah... it's all the way that '95/98 maps the characters... Stick these in yer config.sys... device=C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND\display.sys con=(ega,,1) Country=044,437,C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND\country.sys And these in yer autoexec.bat mode con codepage prepare=((437) C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND\ega.cpi) mode con codepage select=437 Yer might have to change the "44" to your country code... but it's the 437 bit that's important... I think '95/98 put "850" as the default... and... well... most *censored* ascii characters don't like it :) Fixed it on mine anyhows :) And I'll email you the *censored* ascii font too ;) John
