NLSFUNC
Note  Examples
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
 
                                  NLSFUNC
 
Starts the Nlsfunc program, which loads country-specific information for
national language support (NLS).
 
You can use the NLSFUNC command either from the command line or within your
CONFIG.SYS file to support the use of country-specific information and
character set (code page) switching.
 
Do not use the NLSFUNC command while Windows is running. If you do, your
computer might stop responding.
 
Syntax
 
    NLSFUNC [[drive:][path]filename]
 
In your CONFIG.SYS file, use the following syntax:
 
    INSTALL=[[dos-drive:]dos-path]NLSFUNC.EXE [country-filename]
 
Parameters
 
[drive:][path]filename or country-filename
    Specifies the location and name of the file containing country-specific
    information. If you use this parameter in the INSTALL command, you must
    include the drive and directory.
 
[dos-drive:]dos-path
    Specifies the location of NLSFUNC.EXE.
