1.6 National Modes

The national mode is set with tool type `NATIONAL' There are three different national modes in Napsaterm.

None
By default, when no national mode in not in use, (None, abbreviated as NO), Napsaterm uses the ISO-8857 Latin 1 character set, the standard character set used in Amiga. By default, Napsaterm uses either the default system keymap or the keymap specified with tool type KEYMAP, if any.
Multinational
In the Multinational mode (abbreviated as MU) Napsaterm uses the Latin 1 character set and the appropriate national keymap. See section 1.6.1 National Keymaps for a list of default national keymap names. A specific national keymap can also be specified with tool type KEYMAP or KEYBOARD.
National
In the National mode (abbreviated as NA) Napsaterm uses the appropriate national 7 bit character set and the national keymap. See section 1.6.2 National Character Tables for tables of national character sets.

1.6.1 National Keymaps

Default national keymaps are as follows:

* `US ASCII' uses (`usa1')
* `Danish', (`dk')
* `Finnish', (`s')
* `French', (`f')
* `German', (`d')
* `Norwegian', (`n')
* `Swedish', (`s')
* `UK ASCII', (`gb')

You can change national keymap with tool type `KEYMAP'=nation/keymapname, for example

KEYMAP=Finnish/s-term

changes the Finnish keymap to `s-term'. You can abbreviate the nation name, see also tool type NATION.
