With all versions I've tried of Dosemu, I have problem with some special characters. Now, I also tried the current svn version with the same result. I'm a Norwegian using charset iso8859-1 and no-latin1 keyboard layout on a Fedora core 6 system, and without GUI. The relevant settings in dosemu.conf that's changed, is: $_rawkeyboard = (1) $_internal_char_set = "cp850"
Try to make sure you are *really* using iso8859-1. Fedora has everything UTF-8 by default so it's easy to miss out on something. On the Linux console, for non-suid DOSEMU you'd need a) locale settings without utf8 (output of "locale") b) the console in 8-bit mode (using unicode_stop) c) a good font. I sometimes do setfont default8x16 to get at least all cp437 characters. Although I just checked that LatArCyrHeb* at least works for your character. everything UTF-8 should work too. Try not to mess with $_external_char_set for now.
Character : ³ (0263, 179, 0xb3 charset: eight-bit-graphic (8-bit graphic char (0xa0..0xff)) code point: 179
0xb3 (or alt-179) produces a vertical bar in most DOS codepages (incl 437, 850, ..) Bart - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-msdos" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
