Important Notice

The pages on this site contain documentation for very old MS-DOS software, purely for historical purposes. If you're looking for up-to-date documentation, particularly for programming, you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully out of date.

     When the Select Code Page subfunction is used, MS-DOS gets the new
     code page from the COUNTRY.SYS file. The device must be previously
     prepared for code page switching with the appropriate DEVICE=
     directive in the CONFIG.SYS file and NLSFUNC and MODE CP PREPARE
     commands (usually placed in the AUTOEXEC.BAT file).
