Yes. The first Device Driver header (NUL) is in the LoL. From there, you can
follow the chain (a linked list of pointers) as far as you want, and can
insert/remove new headers wherever you want.

No, you just insert a new one with the same name in the Device Driver chain.
DOS always searches the chain in order, and uses the first one with the correct
name that it finds. It doesn't actually know, or even care, where t

FWIW, you don't actually need to turn DISPLAY into a device driver in order to
replace/enhance CON. You can do that with a TSR also. See my USBPRINT if you
want an example of

Hi Eric,
My main point was to use 0x10 to allow right to left display of Unicode for
Arabic, Syriac, Hebrew etc. If each application processes its own input and
output
and we are only concerned with displaying their output, then whether they use
0x10 or write directly to video memory is irrelevan

In color text modes, alternating bytes are used for character and attribute.

Of course. In the old days of
Hi
I don't know much (anything) about unicode but,
Right-to-left might be hard to do (I guess?), but technically as long
as they can see and enter what they want, I'm sure they can get used
to left-to-right.

I'll work on distinct packs of codepages and keyboard layouts for ISO
8859-1 ~ 16.
