- DEVICE=[d:][pathname]ANSI.SYS
- [/L] [/K] [/X] [new DOS 4.0]
-
- ANSI.SYS is a device driver that provides enhanced control of the screen and
- keyboard. It is normally on your DOS system disk, but is only used when this
- line is present in the CONFIG.SYS file. If DEVICE=DISPLAY.SYS in also used,
- it must appear after this line.
-
- Enhanced screen and keyboard control is supported by the PROMPT, ECHO, and ESC
- commands, and DOS function calls from within a program. See the "PROMPT",
- "ECHO", and "ESC" topics for more information. Enhancements include:
-
- More prompt features Erase/insert lines More screen mode control
- Cursor positioning Screen color control Key (re)assignement capability
-
- /L will ignore requests by programs to change the number of lines displayed on
- the screen, and retain the value set by the MODE command.
-
- /K will disable extended function keys (101-key keyboards only)
-
- /X will differentiate the duplicated function keys (101-key keyboards only).
