.SH SYNOPSIS

.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
|
.sp
|
||
|
|
cp437 is a program to emulate an old\-style "code page 437" / "IBM\-PC"
|
||
|
|
character set terminal on a modern terminal emulator that uses UTF\-8
|
||
|
|
or similar.
|
||
|
|
.sp
|
||
|
|
It was written for the purpose of running the BitchX IRC client, which utilises
|
||
|
|
CP437 line\-drawing characters in its default theme and artwork. It should
|
||
|
|
also be broadly useful for things like viewing CP437 "ANSI art", running
|
||
|
|
nethack with the IBMgraphics option or running EPIC with scripts that use CP437
|
||
|
|
artwork.
|
||
|
|
.sp
|
||
|
|
It takes no command line options. The only arguments are the command to run
|
||
|
|
and its arguments (if any).
|
||
|
|
.sp
|
||
|
|
You\(aqll need to have your LANG or LC_CTYPE environment variable
|
||
|
|
set up to match the character set used by your terminal
|
||
|
|
emulator. On Slackware, this can be done system\-wide by editing
|
||
|
|
\fB/etc/profile.d/lang.sh\fP, or by editing your shell\(aqs startup scripts
|
||
|
|
(e.g. \fB~/.bash_profile\fP).
|
||
|
|
.SH EXAMPLES
|
||
|
|
.sp
|
||
|
|

|
||
|
|
.INDENT 0.0
|
||
|
|
.INDENT 3.5
