+ | Usage: **SET** **TRANSLATION** <character translation table> | ||
+ | |||
+ | The TRANSLATION variable defines a character translation table. By default, | ||
+ | ircII assumes that all text processed over the network is in the ISO 8859/1 | ||
+ | map, also known as Latin-1. This is identical to standard ASCII, except that | ||
+ | it is extended with additional characters in the range 128-255. Many | ||
+ | environments by default use the Latin-1 map, such as X Windows, MS Windows, | ||
+ | AmigaDOS, and modern ANSI terminals including Digital VT200, VT300, VT400 | ||
+ | series and MS-Kermit. However, many older environments use non-standard | ||
+ | extensions to ASCII, and yet others use 7-bit national replacement sets. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Some available settings for the TRANSLATION variable: | ||
+ | |||
+ | ^ 8-bit sets: ^ | ||
+ | | HP_MCS |Hewlett Packard Extended Roman 8. | | ||
+ | | MACINTOSH |Apple Macintosh computers and boat anchors. | | ||
+ | | CP437 |Old IBM PC, compatibles and Atari ST. | | ||
+ | | CP850 |New IBM PC compatibles and IBM PS/2. | | ||
+ | | DEC_MCS |DEC Multinational Character Set. VAX/VMS. VT320's and other 8-bit Digital terminals use this set by default, but I recommend changing to Latin-1 in the terminal Set-Up. | | ||
+ | | DG_MCS |Data General Multinational Character Set. | | ||
+ | | NEXT |NeXT. | | ||
