CP437 is the character set of the original IBM PC. It is also known as DOS-US, OEM-US or IBM Extended character set. They also may erroneously be referred to as the OEM font, Extended ASCII or High ASCII.

Code Page 437

Unicode references:

What is the glyph represented by that UNICODE value: Unicode Format Info

Which fonts support the characters I want to use: Unicode Fonts

What was the format again?: Unicode Formats

A UTF32 value is usually(but by no means always!) the same as a UTF16 value just with the top 2 bytes set to 0.

Setting up a typing language in the QB64 IDE:

Step 1: In the OPTIONS menu select DISPLAY, then check the CUSTOM FONT check-box. Step 2: In the OPTIONS menu select LANGUAGE, then select a Code Page (CP850 for example) and click OK.

Font cyberbit.ttf, included with QB64 as of V0.92(October 2010), is required to facilitate the IME(in Chinese settings) only. The 12.7 MB font is free for non-commercial use and is not loaded unless the user switches to the Input Mode Editor. Setting up the Unicode Input Method Editor in Windows If you need help with IME support in Vista see the following article: Setting up IME in Vista

QB64 can use several Windows fonts when 'cyberbit' is not present so it is not necessary to include with program packages.
