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. Using ISO Fonts
  4. 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. (In addition, 
MS-DOS 6.22 includes ISO-compliant versions of certain character sets; 
for more information, see section 3 of this file.)

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.

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 four codepage information (.CPI) files. The
three EGAx.CPI files are similar except that they contain information 
for different code pages. The ISO.CPI file contains ISO-compliant
character sets; for more information, see section 3 of this file.

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
