Hello!
The following occurred once before, but I wrote it off as an oddity that I
triggered (somehow) ..and would not repeat. But it *has* repeated. And
I am wondering what the trigger might be.
When I drop to DOS shell via F9, the console switches to cyrillic!
The prompt looks normal, but subsequent keyboard entries are cyrillic.
A cut'n'paste of what I saw doesn't work here since this session is CP437,
so instead I've captured a screen shot of the result here:

And, when that happens, there is no way to safely exit the shell. :(
If I was in the middle of writing a message (which I was this 2nd time),
and shell to DOS, I lose the message I was working on since I have to kill
OXP.
Is there an history of this phenomenon that gives a clue as to why the
cyrillic codepage gets triggered?
Is there is DOS trick to exit a sub shell invoked by F9?
