RISC OS character set

This is the Acorn RISC OS character set^[1] used in the Acorn Archimedes series and subsequent computers since 1987. It is an extension of ISO/IEC 8859-1.

Character set

Characters at 0x83, 0x84, 0x87, 0x88, 0x89, 0x8A, and 0x8B are specific to the Acorn RISC OS and therefore, are not in Unicode. At 0x83 is a box with another box inside it on the top left-hand corner, meaning "resize window". At 0x84 is a A 'bubble-writing' X, meaning "close window". At 0x87 is a very strange character that is an 7-segment-styled 8 with an 7-segment-styled 7 to the top right of it. At 0x88, 0x89, 0x8A, and 0x8B are left, right, up, and down bubble arrows for window scrollbars. The Homerton font does not have these characters. EFF, a third-party supplier of RISC OS outline fonts, has a different, but similar character set.^[1]
