I've written a hack that adds code pages for ISO parts 1--5 and 9 (latin's -1
thru -5 and cyrillic) to PCs with EGA or VGA display controllers running MS-DOS
3.3 or later. The Cyrillic part was written first and is sitting on SIMTEL20 as
<MSDOS.SCREEN>CYRILIC2.ARC. I haven't written keyboard drivers for latin's yet,
which is why they're not floating around; but folks who want to experiment with
display-only :) code pages can ask me and I'll e-mail the display part to them.

To correct what Bill Tuthill said, all these parts of 8859 have passed and are
ISO standards, now DIS's. More parts (latin-6 and latin-7) are in the works.
There is a mailing list ISO8859 on LISTSERV@APLVM.BITNET used to discuss all
aspects of 8859.
