before all, sorry by my english, tarzan style.
I have a legacy app in windows, based in clipper and dbf. runs ok in winXP and win7 , this app shows characters in chcp850 (for drawin tables) when i run this app in wine... seems to use cp1252 and show me Ä character for the character thath draws a horizontal line of a table.
I think , change character codepage will resolve my problem... but i don't know how do that.
I search the forum... but nothing works...
Then... how change the chcp to cp850 for a app in wine?

Re: Change character codepage to CP850
You would use something like "LC_ALL=en_US.cp850 wine yourapp.exe", assuming that you are using US English (en_US). This requires that your system is supporting that codepage. "locale -a" shows the supported locales. If cp850 (or ibm-850) isn't supported, google for how to setup locales under your linux.
