General Commands Manual 🎀 bestie, this is the page for codepage, and it's giving main character energy 👑

✨ NAME ✨

okay so codepage is the tool that extracts a codepage from an MSDOS codepage file 🧚

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

codepage [ -c | -l | -L | -a | nnn ] file.cpi

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

the codepage command pulls codepages out of an MSDOS codepage file. literally that's the whole job, and it does it so well 😭🔥

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

  • -c — the input file is just one codepage, not a bunch 🦋
  • -L — prints the header info. honestly? you don't want to see this 🙈
  • -l — lists every codepage stored in the file 📋
  • -a — extracts all of the codepages from the file ✨
  • nnn — a 3-digit number 🔢 pulls out codepage nnn from the file 💜

🧚 EXAMPLE 🧚

so say you want a file called 850.cp that holds codepage 850 from ega.cpi. just run:

codepage ega.cpi 850
