Character Sets
The TravelMate Computer character sets are identical to
the IBM Code Pages for
MS-DOS. This appendix shows the
character sets for Code Page 437 (United States), 850
(Multilingual), 863 (Canadian-French), and 865 (Nordic),
with the decimal and hexadecimal codes for each character.
The four-character sets contain differences in the
international, symbol, and graphics characters above
decimal code 128 (extended
ASCII characters).

Note: The extended ASCII characters that are not on the
keyboard (128 to 255 decimal) can be displayed at the
MS-DOS prompt and in many applications. Press ALT, and
type the
ASCII decimal code for the character using the keys
with numbers on their front face and also using FN or
NUM LK on. Release the ALT key and the character is
displayed on the screen. Your printer may or may not print
the extended characters. Refer to the character code tables
in your printer documentation.
