About: Code page 856

An Entity of Type: work, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Code page 856 (CCSID 856) (also known as CP 856 and IBM 00856), is a code page used under DOS for Hebrew in Israel. Like ISO 8859-8, it encodes only letters, not vowel-points or cantillation marks. As non-localized issues of DOS (except for Hebrew MS-DOS a.k.a. HDOS) had no inherent bidirectionality support, Hebrew text encoded using code page 856 was usually stored in visual order; nevertheless, a few DOS applications, notably a word processor named EinsteinWriter, stored Hebrew in logical order.
