Code page 896

Code page 896 (CCSIDs 896 and 4992), called Japan 7-Bit Katakana Extended,[1] is IBM's code page for code-set G2 of EUC-JP, a 7-bit code page representing the Kana set (upper half) of JIS X 0201 and accompanying Code page 895 which corresponds to the lower half of that standard. It encodes half-width katakana.

Code page 896 is a 7-bit encoding and therefore does not use the high bit. When it used as the right half of an 8-bit encoding, all values except 0x20 use encoding bytes 0x80 above those defined in the code page[1] (i.e. with the high bit set).

In addition to the standard JIS X 0201 assignments in CCSID 896,[2] CCSID 4992 defines five extended characters at code points 60-64.[3]

  1. Listed in Code page 896,[1] available as 0x20 when using ISO 2022 compliant character sets (except 96-character sets). Not used when the codepage is used elsewhere than 0x200x7F, e.g. when encoded in 0x8EA00x8EFF as part of Code page 954.[6]
gollark: Technically, Powerpoint is Turing-complete and so can be used to execute arbitrary computations.
gollark: This is innovation. This is the *future* of meeting room naming.
gollark: You could replace the door signs with cheap wireless-capable tablets or something and manage them centrally.
gollark: The Google-scale™ solution would be to have some sort of system constantly monitor internet traffic to determine the latest hilarious memetic hazards, then to update the room names automatically accordingly.
gollark: Their incentives aren't really lined up with those of random smaller content creators.
