Comments:
This implementation of NLSFUNC is FreeDOS specific.
It won't work with MS-DOS or any other DOS variant.
It also does not work with Kernel 2.036!
Examples:
IN CONFIG.SYS / FDCONFIG.SYS:
COUNTRY=34,858,C:\FDOS\COUNTRY.SYS
IN AUTOEXEC.BAT:
LH DISPLAY CON=(EGA,858,2)
MODE CON CP PREP=((850) C:\FDOS\CPI\EGA.CPX)
MODE CON CP PREP=((,437) C:\FDOS\CPI\EGA.CPX)
LH NLSFUNC /Y
Then switch code pages using CHCP
If you do not need to change code pages, just
omit the MODE lines.
