Dear netters:

Sponsored by Oxford University, a Japanese front-end processor for IBM-
compatible PC has been developed and its version 1.0 is being released.

JitsuYou JKDOS is a so-called add-on software to standard MS-DOS/PC-BIOS
of IBM compatible PCs. It provides the possibility of input and output
of Japanese (Kana/Kanji) on the level of MS-DOS so that standard
western software can be used for Japanese without any modifications.

Before starting an application, first start JitsuYou JKDOS by entering
JY in the JY directory. JY is a TSR program which loads itself, the
screen-driver and printer-driver into memory.

Following this you can use the character-oriented DOS applications like
MS-WORD, WordPerfect, dBASE, Borland's language products etc., and
input and output Japanese directly. JitsuYou JKDOS 1.0 supports
EGA/VGA/Hercules graphics cards, 24 pin, HP II compatible and
PostScript printers.

Together with ShiYong CCDOS 2.0, it is possible to mix Japanese,
simplified Chinese, classical Chinese and most European languages in a
single file and on a single printed page.

Available for a test/demo installation:
