SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION ON MS-DOS 6.22 -- CUSTOMIZING FOR INTERNATIONAL USE
============================================================================

This file provides information on customizing MS-DOS 6.22 for international
use. This information is not included in the MICROSOFT MS-DOS USER'S
GUIDE, MS-DOS Help or the README.TXT file. It supplements the international
keyboard and character set information provided in Section 1 of the
README.TXT file that accompanied MS-DOS 6.22.

This file covers the following topics:

1. Additional Character Set (Codepage) and Keyboard Support
1.1 The KEYBRD2.SYS File
1.2 The EGA.CPI, EGA2.CPI, and EGA3.CPI Files
1.3 Configuring Your Computer to Use International-Language Settings
2. Switching Between Modes on Dual-Mode Keyboards
3. Quick Reference Tables for International Language Support

1. Additional Character Set (Codepage) and Keyboard Support
============================================================
MS-DOS 6.22 includes the KEYBRD2.SYS, EGA2.CPI and EGA3.CPI files, which
offer support for additional keyboards and character sets (codepages).
You use these files just as you would the KEYBOARD.SYS and EGA.CPI files.
MS-DOS also includes new country settings in COUNTRY.SYS.

MS-DOS 6.22 includes new country settings in COUNTRY.SYS that use the
new keyboards and character sets. For more information, see the tables
in section 4 of this file. For a complete list of all the countries,
keyboards and character sets provided by MS-DOS 6.22, see section 4
of this file.

Note: ISO.CPI, an additional codepage information file, provides
ISO-compliant fonts that can be used in place of the standard
MS-DOS fonts. The ISO.CPI file is included in the MS-DOS Resource
Kit; to obtain it, send in the coupon in the back of your MS-DOS
USER'S GUIDE.

1.1 The KEYBRD2.SYS File
-------------------------
The KEYBRD2.SYS file is essentially similar to KEYBOARD.SYS; you use it
just as you would the KEYBOARD.SYS file. The differences between
KEYBOARD.SYS and KEYBRD2.SYS are:

o KEYBRD2.SYS contains support for the following keyboards, which
are not supported by KEYBOARD.SYS:

Country/Language Keyboard layout Keyboard ID
---------------- --------------- -----------
Canada (standard CAN/CSA-Z keyboard) cf See below.
Brazil (secondary standard keyboard) br 274, 275
Bulgaria bg 442
Greece gk 319
Iceland is 161
Macedonia and Serbia/Montenegro yc 118
Romania ro 333
Russian ru 441
Turkish tr 440, 179

o Although KEYBRD2.SYS contains a Canadian keyboard with the same
keyboard code (058) and identifier (cf) as KEYBOARD.SYS, the
layout of the two keyboards is different. The Canadian keyboard
layout in KEYBRD2.SYS meets the standard set forth by the Canadian
government's specification 243.200-92 (CAN/CSA-Z). The keyboard
layout in KEYBOARD.SYS is more commonly used, but does not meet
Canadian government specifications.

o The KEYBRD2.SYS file does not include support for the following
keyboards supported by KEYBOARD.SYS:

Belgium
Danish
French
Japan
Latin America
Netherlands
Portuguese
Spanish
Switzerland (German)
Switzerland (French)

o KEYBRD2.SYS contains changes to the German keyboard that are
not in KEYBOARD.SYS. In the German keyboard, the SHIFT lock
behavior of the top row of the keyboard is now functionally
the same as the US keyboard (that is, "typewriter mode"
has been removed).

1.2 The EGA.CPI, EGA2.CPI, and EGA3.CPI Files
----------------------------------------------
MS-DOS 6.22 includes three codepage information (.CPI) files, each
of which contains information for different code pages.

EGA.CPI contains the following:

437 - United States
850 - Multilingual (Latin I)
852 - Slavic/Eastern European (Latin II)
860 - Portuguese
863 - Canadian-French
865 - Nordic

EGA2.CPI contains the following:

737 - Greek II
850 - Multilingual (Latin I)
852 - Slavic/Eastern European (Latin II)
857 - Turkish
861 - Icelandic
869 - Greek

EGA3.CPI contains the following:

437 - United States
850 - Multilingual (Latin I)
852 - Slavic/Eastern European (Latin II)
855 - Cyrillic I
866 - Russian (Cyrillic II)

1.3 Configuring Your Computer to Use International-Language Settings
---------------------------------------------------------------------
To use country settings or a character set other than the standard
ones (United States), you must edit your CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT
files.

For example, to use the new Icelandic settings, carry out the
following steps:

1. Add the following commands to your CONFIG.SYS file:

REM ICELAND SETTINGS
COUNTRY=354,861,C:\DOS\COUNTRY.SYS
DEVICE=C:\DOS\DISPLAY.SYS CON=(,,2)

2. Add the following commands to your AUTOEXEC.BAT file:

REM ICELAND SETTINGS
MODE CON CP PREPARE=((861 850) c:\DOS\EGA2.CPI
MODE CON CP SELECT=861
KEYB IS,,C:\DOS\KEYBRD2.SYS

3. Restart your computer.


2. Switching Between Modes on Dual-Mode Keyboards
==================================================
MS-DOS 6.22 includes dual-mode keyboard support for Greek,
French Canadian, Bulgarian, Serbia/Montenegro, and Russian keyboards.
These keyboards allow you to easily switch between two different
keyboard modes. When your computer starts with one of these keyboards,
the primary mode is active. To switch modes, press the appropriate
key combination (listed below).

The key combinations for the Greek keyboard are as follows:

Mode description Key combination
---------------- ---------------
Primary mode Latin ALT+LEFT SHIFT
Secondary mode Greek ALT+RIGHT SHIFT

The key combinations for the French Canadian keyboard are as follows:

Mode description Key combination
---------------- ---------------
Primary mode Latin CTRL+RIGHT SHIFT
Secondary mode Latin II CTRL+LEFT SHIFT

The key combinations for the Bulgarian, Russian, Serbia/Montenegro and
Macedonia keyboards are as follows:

Mode description Key combination
---------------- ---------------
Primary mode Latin ALT+LEFT SHIFT
Secondary mode Cyrillic ALT+RIGHT SHIFT


4. Quick Reference Tables for International Language Support
=============================================================
The following table lists each country supported by MS-DOS 6.22,
along with the associated character set, CPI file, and keyboard codes.

* Although COUNTRY.SYS supports the country conventions (date, time,
currency, etc.) associated with code pages 862 (Hebrew), 864 (Arabic),
932 (Japanese), 934 (Korean), 936 (PRC Chinese), and 938 (Taiwanese),
those character sets (code pages) are available only with the
associated special versions of MS-DOS (Hebrew, Arabic, Japanese,
Korean, PRC Chinese, and Taiwanese).

** Hong Kong, India, Malaysia, and Singapore have been added to COUNTRY.SYS
to give access to these countries' settings when using Universal English.
If you need to use settings for one of these countries using the primary
language for that country, contact the appropriate International
Microsoft Office (Microsoft Hong Kong Limited, Microsoft Systems Private
Limited (India), Microsoft Malaysia Sdn Bhd, or Microsoft Singapore Pte
Ltd).
