herennium -> German Umlaut (Oct. 11, '06, 12:59:14 PM)

Hello,

is there a possibility do see german umlauts (ÄäÖöÜüß) in SFU?
Have sourcecode containing them and it results in strange looking applications :(

Cheers,
Manuel

Sure. You just have to make sure the code page of the DOS-consoleWindow
is the same as the code page that was used to encode these german characters.
If the ä is encoded as 0x84, then you want to use code page 437.
If the ä is encode as 0xE4, then you want to use code page 1252 (latin I).

By default on a US based Windows system, code page 437 is used in
the DOS-consolewindow.
To change the code page, use the /usr/contrib/win32/bin/chcp command.
Such as "/usr/contrib/win32/bin/chcp 1252"
