Code Page 1251 for Windows

Used in Windows and in most (but not all) World Wide Web documents.

Important note: Windows95 users can use these utilities. But if you are best advised to use Microsoft's native fonts and keyboard drivers. If you do not have the original Windows95 CD-ROM, you can get a Cyrillic / Eastern European installation packet with documentation directly from Microsoft's Multilanguage support or you can download their lang.exe file directly. Run it and follow the ReadMe directions. (This packet supports only Code Page 1251. For other code pages, use the utilities listed later in this page.)
