CHCP--Notes
 
Requirements for using the CHCP command
 
Before you can use the CHCP command, you must specify the location of the
COUNTRY.SYS file by using the <COUNTRY> command and load the <NLSFUNC>
program into memory.
 
Assigning a new character set
 
After you assign a new character set, any program you start uses that new
character set. However, any program (not including COMMAND.COM) that you
started before assigning the new character set will probably attempt to use
the original character set.
