CP437
⸺ by Charles Iliya Krempeaux
The CP437 is a 256-bit character-set that was common with the IBM PC and the IBM PC clones.
Other names for CP437 include:
- csPC8CodePage437,
 - code-page-437,
 - dos-latin-us,
 - oem-437,
 - oem-us, and
 - pc-8.
 
All CP437 characters have equivalents in the character-set; although that numerical representations of the characters are different with many of them.
Art
A lot of the vintage , including s, used the cp437 character-set.
A lot of the (so called) also actually used the cp437 character-set (rather than the character-set.)
CP437 versus ASCII
The CP437 shares a number of s with the character-set, but — the CP437 is not a superset of the character-set.
