On the U.S. English version, it's 437. I believe this is different in the localized versions, but I don't have any to check with. The command I use is 'chcp', without any options (graftabl will also get the job done). chcp can also be used to change the codepage as necessary, although the available options are somewhat limited.
Unfortunately, I don't know anything about Solaris, so I can't help you there. — Jeffrey > Hi, > > Do you have any idea what is the default code page and encoding scheme for > MS DOS box in WinNT 4?
