Oops... sory, I somehow thought you are asking of menu font.
Changing charsets of system parts of the windows is not trivial
task and often needs previous system changes.

On Win98: ControlPanel/Keyboard/Languages ...
(sometimes it is necessary to *complete* reinstall the whole OS,
and select the desired language/keayboard when first asked!)

On WinXP: Regional and Language Options / Advanced /
Language for non-unicode programs has to point to some
special language like Serbian-latin at my case if I want to see
diacrytical marks.



Best regards,
Vladimir Stefanovic
