[comp.sys.ibm.pc] International support on MS-DOS v2.25 ???

frohne@pur-ee.UUCP (Henry R Frohne) (04/30/88)

In "Advanced MS-DOS" by Ray Duncan, the author writes on page 7:
"In MS-DOS version 2.25, released in October 1985, the international support
was extended even further for Japanese and Korean character sets..."

Does anybody have any information on what this means?  Does it mean that
my PC will show characters in Japanese and Korean with this version of
DOS?  Or does it just have few Japanese and Korean characters instead of
the usual extended graphics characters?

Any information on this or related subject will be appreciated.
