Code page 850 cites both IBM and the International Components for Unicode in the header of the table describing the layout of the code page. IBM and the article provide a table where the characters at positions 0x00–0x7F match Code page 437, but International Components for Unicode provides a mapping that instead agrees with ASCII including ASCII control codes. The IBM mapping agrees with the IBM table not the Unicode mapping. Is the situation here something like the whole ISO 8859-1 vs Windows-1252 thing, or is one of the sources just wrong?

Other Wikipedia articles on Dos codepages have similar issues, but some only provide a table for the upper half and state that the lower half is the same as Code page 437. What should the articles say? McYeee (talk) 20:08, 23 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
