- WARNING: AD_DRV is not designed for cyrillizing of Windows or
- another operating system, although there is no problem with AD_DRV
- in DOS window of OS/2 and DOS window of Windows or even in DOS
- window of NeXT. Windows use their own fonts and keyboard handler.
- Work of AD_DRV with Windows is senseless. For cyrillizing of
- Windows you MUST use another, special, system, like Cyrwin, or
- consult with author (Jiri) for obtaining a freeware version of
- keyboard driver for Windows.
-
- Possible problems: if you use detector of TSR's, like RELEASE.COM,
- then some kind of damage can be occured while unloading by means of
- AD_DRV itself. In this case you must unload it ONLY by means of
- RELEASE.COM, or don't use RELEASE at all. Although author found
- problems with using originally russian Ventura Publisher
- Professional Extension, it's no error of AD_DRV, because of VP use
- it's own handler of keyboard interrupt. So you have to use special
- keyboard driver VPKBD.COM. For obtaining keyboard driver contact,
- please, with author. Enjoy this freeware AD_DRV package!
