Hi all,

this is to announce a new version of the CPI-file pack for FreeDOS - which
was called simply "CPI" and is now called CPIDOS - and still contains
DOS-based codepages only, such as cp437, cp850 and cp858 (= cp850 with Euro
sign).

The enhancements affect parcularly EGA5, EGA6 and EGA7.CPI files, as well as
the respective updates on documentation.

EGA5 contains, as before, greek codepages as well as cp850 and cp858 for the
primary (latin) layouts of greek keyboards.
cp111 has been removed; cp737 provides all the greek letters available on
that CP (and precisely on the same positions) and includes capital accented
letters. Therefore, EGA5 is now a little smaller, saving space for other
greek codepages which I might need to include in the future.

EGA6 contains, as before, armenian and georgian codepages and an old
yugoslavian codepage (cp113); now it includes cp858 for the primary layouts
of armenian and georgian keyboards. It makes it easier for owners of those
keyboards, so that they find all CPs they need into a single CPI file.

EGA7 contains, as before, non-slavic cyrillic codepages; now it includes
cp858 for the same reason it was included on EGA6.

I also introduce CPI-file packs based on other platforms: Windows (CPIWIN),
ISO (CPIISO), KOI (CPIKOI), Mac (CPIMAC) and a pack called "CPIMSC", which
contains codepages from HP, DEC and NextSTEP platforms.

The packs can be found at

Have a nice day,
Henrique
