tex,
on my nt4 sp5 machine, i can change to "Lucida Console" and display the Euro in the dos box without changing the codepage (i am on 437 here; i am pasting in from the character map utility, or alt-0128).
by the way, if all else fails, you know that on windows nt/2000, you can "chcp 10000" and thus set the dos box to unicode (ucs-2/utf-16)?!
