Is not enough. I need the characters too, I mean the fonts. In my editor you
can have the code in CP437 and the comments in cyrilic ;-)
To do it I need my own fonts. That's the nice thing of DOS, I can do anything
the hard supports, doing it in Linux is hard :-(
I can take the fonts from the Linux kbd package and the names of the
characters from the Unicode standard. As I have both I think I'll have all
the pieces of the puzzle.
