Extended Binary Coded Decimal Interchange Code is an eight-bit character encoding used mainly on IBM mainframe and IBM midrange computer operating systems. It descended from the code used with punched cards and the corresponding six-bit binary-coded decimal code used with most of IBM's computer peripherals of the late 1950s and early 1960s. It is supported by various non-IBM platforms, such as Fujitsu-Siemens' BS2000/OSD, OS-IV, MSP, and MSP-EX, the SDS Sigma series, Unisys VS/9, Burroughs MCP and ICL VME.
ISO/IEC 646 is the name of a set of ISO standards, described as Information technology — ISO 7-bit coded character set for information interchange and developed in cooperation with ASCII at least since 1964. Since its first edition in 1967 it has specified a 7-bit character code from which several national standards are derived.
IBM code page 285 is an EBCDIC code page with full Latin-1-charset used in IBM mainframes. It is used in Ireland and the United Kingdom.
Code page 863 is a code page used under DOS to write French language although it lacks the letters Æ, æ, Œ, œ, Ÿ and ÿ.
Code page 857 is a code page used under DOS to write Turkish.
Code page 869 is a code page used under DOS to write Greek language. It is also called DOS Greek 2. It was designed to include all characters from ISO 8859-7.
Windows code pages are sets of characters or code pages used in Microsoft Windows from the 1980s and 1990s. Windows code pages were gradually superseded when Unicode was implemented in Windows, although they are still supported both within Windows and other platforms.
The National Replacement Character Set, or NRCS for short, was a feature supported by later models of Digital's (DEC) computer terminal systems, starting with the VT200 series in 1983. NRCS allowed individual characters from one character set to be replaced by one from another set, allowing the construction of different character sets on the fly. It was used to customize the character set to different local languages, without having to change the terminal's ROM for different countries, or alternately, include many different sets in a larger ROM. Many 3rd party terminals and terminal emulators supporting VT200 codes also supported NRCS.
Code page 1047 is an EBCDIC code page with the full Latin-1 character set. It is closely related to both EBCDIC 037-2 and EBCDIC 037, both of which also encode Latin-1.
The programming language APL uses a number of symbols, rather than words from natural language, to identify operations, similarly to mathematical symbols. Prior to the wide adoption of Unicode, a number of special-purpose EBCDIC and non-EBCDIC code pages were used to represent the symbols required for writing APL.
Code page 856, is a code page used under DOS for Hebrew.
Code page 859 is a code page used under DOS to write Western European languages. It contains all of the characters in ISO 8859-15.
Code page 1103, also known as CP1103, or SF7DEC, is an IBM code page number assigned to the Finnish variant of DEC's National Replacement Character Set (NRCS). The 7-bit character set was introduced for DEC's computer terminal systems, starting with the VT200 series in 1983, but is also used by IBM for their DEC emulation. Similar but not identical to the series of ISO 646 character sets, the character set is a close derivation from ASCII with only nine code points differing.
Code page 1106, also known as CP1106 or S7DEC, is an IBM code page number assigned to the Swedish variant of DEC's National Replacement Character Set (NRCS). The 7-bit character set was introduced for DEC's computer terminal systems, starting with the VT200 series in 1983, but is also used by IBM for their DEC emulation. Similar but not identical to the series of ISO 646 character sets, the character set is a close derivation from ASCII with only ten code points differing.
Code page 1021, also known as CP1021 or CH7DEC, is an IBM code page number assigned to the Swiss variant of DEC's National Replacement Character Set (NRCS). The 7-bit character set was introduced for DEC's computer terminal systems, starting with the VT200 series in 1983, but is also used by IBM for their DEC emulation. Similar but not identical to the series of ISO 646 character sets, the character set is a close derivation from ASCII with only twelve code points differing.
Code page 1023, also known as CP1023 or E7DEC, is an IBM code page number assigned to the Spanish variant of DEC's National Replacement Character Set (NRCS). The 7-bit character set was introduced for DEC's computer terminal systems, starting with the VT200 series in 1983, but is also used by IBM for their DEC emulation. Similar but not identical to the series of ISO 646 character sets, the character set is a close derivation from ASCII with only eight code points differing.
Code page 868 is a code page used to write Urdu.
Code page 252 aka EBCDIC 252 is a Polish EBCDIC code page used in IBM mainframes. GCSGID is 00093, and CPGID is 00252. The number of characters in the code page is 96.
Code page 293 is EBCDIC code page used by IBM mainframes. It used to write source code for the APL programming language.
Code page 310, known as "3270 APL Graphic Escape" or "Graphic Escape APL/TN", is an EBCDIC code page used on IBM mainframes to write the APL programming language. It is used alongside Code page 037, with the Code page 310 codes being prefixed by the Graphic Escape control character.
