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:
  • 1) What is the glyph represented by that UNICODE value: Unicode Format Info
  • 2) Which fonts support the characters I want to use: Unicode Fonts
  • 3) 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.


Example: Setting up Unicode functionality in a program using any monospace font containing characters from a Code Page.

_FONT _LOADFONT("c:\windows\fonts\cour.ttf", 24, "MONOSPACE")
'use codepage 850
RESTORE CP850
FOR ascii_code& = 0 TO 255
    READ unicode_code&
    _MAPUNICODE unicode_code& TO ascii_code&
NEXT

FOR x = 128 TO 255
    PRINT CHR$(x);                'demo: display the upper character map
NEXT

PRINT: PRINT
INPUT "Type some characters now >", Alt_numpad$ 'input some characters with Alt + number pad
PRINT
PRINT Alt_numpad$
