Hello, 2011/7/7 Eric Auer <e.a...@jpberlin.de>: > Still I think UTF-8 aware KEYB and DISPLAY together with old apps > are still a lot more useful than any "you always have to use 16 bit > wide characters" method which would only work with new apps at all.
KEYB would need no changes, 2-char wide characters would be a String. True that not too comfortable to write the corresponding KL layouts, but still feasible. As for DISPLAY: MS-DISPLAY is a true enhancement of CON, but FD-DISPLAY is not (yet). Appart from turning DISPLAY into a DOS device driver and override kernel's CON, but not only IOCTL, but also write. However, it would still let out: - int 10h users - direct video BIOS writers but would be a begining. Am I letting anything out?
