RE : ASCII in DOSEMU

RE : ASCII in DOSEMU

[deden purnamahadi]

Thx Ryan ,

I tried but it still didn't work.
I have a clipper application with some ASCII characters to create a box.
When I run the application, the characters are replayed with "?" , and 
then the appliction exits.
I tried another clipper application with no special ASCII characters, 
and it runs perfectly.

Attached is the dosemu configuration

Hello,

Are you using an xterm?  Have you installed the VGA font, and using -fn
vga when you start the xterm?

If at console, are you using charset G0 cp437 to switch to the IBM
character set?

you have to remove the #'s. Otherwise these two are treated as comments.

Alternatively you could run xdosemu.

Ooops, sorry.
OK, i just tried again (removing the #'s), but it still won't work. :((

BTW, I can't find xdosemu.
