Default Character Sets
The default character sets are as follows:
Windows: WIN1252
UNIX: ISO-8859/1
VMS: DEC Multinational
DEC Multinational and ISO-8859/1 are extended ASCII character sets. They have identical definitions for the 128 7-bit characters. They differ only in the defaults they assign for several of the 128 additional characters in the 8-bit character set.
