-: The possibility of a DOS call use has been descarted due some difficulties.
-: DOS sometimes lies about the codepage in use.
-: 
-: The user must _always_ set the lang environment variable in djgpp.env.

If I add the following lines to djgpp.env

+LANG=de
+LANGUAGE=de,en

then I _do_ get German text (e.g., from `sed --version'), but the
umlauted and ess-tzett chars are incorrectly mapped on my screen
under CP437.  These chars _are_ available in the upper half of CP437,
however.  What I have done wrong?  Does NLS require DOS NLSFUNC?

I'm using the latest sed+NLS release with stock djdev 2.03 and DOS 5.0.
