| 381924 | 2005-08-18 00:49:00 | I am wanting to change some keys on my keyboard. For example I want a comma and a tab near the number pad so was wanting to change the + & - keys on the numer pad to a comma and tab. I know there are various programs that will do that in windows but I also use some Dos programs that I need it to work for. Any help please. |

| 381925 | 2005-08-18 02:15:00 | Welcome to PressF1 . ANSI . SYS is what you need for DOS . This was often used to play practical jokes . (How you you like to have the screen cleared each time you pressed the "Enter" key? ANSI . SYS can that . . . or worse) . As always Google will be helpful . From "Ansi . sys", the third link gives a full syntax (the key definition you want is near the end) . You'll have to find the actual key codes . Whether ANSI . SYS will work in Windows XP's "command interpreter" I don't know . "ansi . sys XP" to Google gives links . |

| 381926 | 2005-08-18 02:45:00 | Yes, that's right Graham. Ansi.sys is in Windows\system32 folder. It works ok under the command.com dos environment (not the cmd.exe XP command line). I use it to provide a fancy coloured dos prompt :). There's some info here: is-it-true.org The files in XP corresponding to the dos start up files are autoexec.nt and config.nt |
