In the days before wide National Language Support, IBM and M$ shipped PC-DOS and MS-DOS, respectively, with two code pages: 437 and 850. These pre-dated the ISO standard for these character sets. However, iconv (and many other conversion utilities) still supports them as code pages IBM437 and IBM850, as distinct from CP437 and CP850. -- Regards, Dave [RLU #314465] ======================================================================= [email protected] (David W Noon) ======================================================================= -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list [email protected] http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
