I did NOT implement the device chain surfing, but I DID implement device name checking and device information word update (i.e. if you load NANSI /P after a CON which has IOCTL, NANSI will change itself to pretend having IOCTL, while in reality, it only chains them through). I did NOT implement the ANSI install check (MUX int 2f.1a handler) either. Please try FIRST if the given changes already solve the codepage problem. I did not add RSIS (ask int 10.fe -> es:di alt. video RAM pointer) either, BECAUSE I want you to test if NANSI /B /R already is compatible with multi- taskers like DESQview anyway first. [...]
