Modifying the character set

The number of characters within a character selection table are controlled from
the ENGINES.INI file in the PARIS directory (PARIS/ENGINES.INI).

To modify the character set:

1.  Open the ENGINES.INI file. The default settings for the ENGINES.INI file

are as follows:

[XLEng0]
Connect=LOCAL
Spooler=XLSp10
NLink=DLL
CSTLimit=255

The command line ‘

CSTLimit=XXX

’ describes the current number of

characters in the Character Selection Table (CST). The default setting is 255.

2.  Edit the number of characters required within the range 0 to 255 (for example,

CSTLimit=128 

will provide the characters 0 to 127 which correspond to

the letters, numbers and symbols seen on a standard U.S. keyboard).

• 

All bitmap fonts that are downloaded are affected.

An example of an edited ENGINES.INI FILE:

[XLEng0]
Connect=LOCAL
Spooler=XLSp10
NLink=DLL
CSTLimit=128

 

The syntax rules for editing a file are strict. Command lines are case-sensitive
and must be edited exactly in the format displayed.
