INTERNATIONAL CHARACTER SETS AND EXTENDED TEXT MODES
PROBLEM: When using extended video text modes such as 132x25 or 132x43
on the AST Bravo 386SX-20 using AST DOS 5.0, in conjunction
with an international code page such as Hebrew, the Bravo will
revert to the US code page.
AFFECTED
SYSTEMS: All systems using AST DOS 5.0
SOLUTION: AST Product Marketing has determined that this problem will
not be fixed. Only the US character set will be supported in
extended text modes at this time.
