CodePage resource

Description
Selects the host EBCDIC code page. A code page is the mapping between the host's EBCDIC code points and the Unicode code points used internally by the emulator. Differences in code pages cause the same data from the host to be displayed differently. For example, EBCDIC X'C1' is Unicode U+0041 (A) in almost all host code pages, but EBCDIC X'5B' is Unicode U+0024 ($) in code page 37 and Unicode U+00A3 (£) in code page 285.

Code page values are strings. They have mnemonic names like, which is EBCDIC code page 297, and can also be specified as. One code page does not have an official code page number:, which is the default code page and is a variant of EBCDIC code page 37.

To display the code pages supported by the emulator, use the -v command-line option or execute the action.
