Code page 951

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Code page 951 is a code page number used for different purposes by IBM and Microsoft.

  • The code page number 951 was also used by Microsoft as part of a kludge for providing Hong Kong Supplementary Character Set (HKSCS-2001) support in Windows XP, in the file name of a replacement for code page 950[3] (Traditional Chinese) with Unicode mappings for some Extended User-defined Characters (EUDC) found in HKSCS. HKSCS characters without a Unicode mapping are assigned a Unicode Private Use Area (PUA) code point following previous practices. The IBM code page number for Big5 with HKSCS-2001 is 5471.[4] See Hong Kong Supplementary Character Set § Microsoft Windows.
