DISPLAY is a device driver that allows you to view international letters
and symbols (code pages) on EGA and VGA displays.
Syntax
device =[drive:][path]DISPLAY.SYS codepage[fontfilename]
Remarks
DISPLAY immediately reconfigures your video adapter to display
characters from the selected code page instead of those characters built
into the hardware.
The codepage argument specifies the code page you wish to display.
ROM-DOS supports code pages 437, 850, 852, 860, 863, 865, and 866.
The fontfilename argument, when included, tells ROM-DOS where to find
the EGA.CPI or EGA3.CPI font file. EGA.CPI is the default file choice. If
EGA.CPI is in the same directory as CONFIG.SYS, this can be omitted.
Currently, font information for all countries other than Russia and
Czechoslovakia can be found in EGA.CPI. Russia’s and
Czechoslovakia’s information is contained in EGA3.CPI.
Examples
device=DISPLAY.SYS 850
device=C:\DOS\DISPLAY.SYS 850 C:\DOS\EGA.CPI
These examples configure the video adapter to display code page 850.
The second example is used if the DISPLAY.SYS and EGA.CPI files are
in the C:\DOS directory instead of the same directory as CONFIG.SYS.
