Code Pages

UNICODE CODE PAGES

This is a list of the current Code Pages supported by the QB64 IDE. The data can be copied to a file or made into a DATA field. Each section has a description of the Code Page, the data required for characters 128 TO 255, and a LINK to the Code Table.

NOTE: When copying data to create a CSV file, make sure the cursor ends up below last line at home!

See: Unicode Mapping

Unicode characters can be inserted in Windows by holding down the Alt key and entering a zero followed by the character's three-digit decimal code on the number pad. By omitting the zero, characters from older code pages can be entered like code page 437 in the US and England or code page 850 in Western Europe. In some versions of Windows it is necessary to change the regional settings to another language before entering that region's page codes.

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.
