Hello Troy,

Im afraid you are riding the bad horse. You are wasting the time
with installmgr and ISO CD, but there are main complaints
in base design of Sword.

I say it many times before. The Sword is unusable.

MS Windows uses different code pages contrary unixies.
(CP 1250 contra ISO8859-2 in midle Europe for example).

You cannt provide one the same module for two platforms.
About 1/3 characters are unreadable.
