Information Technology - Character Code Structure and Extension Techniques (Adopted ISO/IEC 2022:1994, fourth edition, 1994-12-01)
This International Standard specifies the structure of 8-bit codes and 7-bit codes which provide for the coding of character sets. The code elements used in the structure are common to both the 8-bit and 7-bit codes. The codes use a variety of techniques for extending the capabilities of elementary 8-bit and 7-bit codes. Greater emphasis is given to 8-bit codes in this edition of the Standard than in previous editions because they are now more widely used.The use of common elements in the 8-bit and 7-bit code structure enables any specific conforming 8-bit code to be transformed into an equivalent 7-bit code, and vice versa, in a simple and direct fashion. ISO/IEC 4873 conforms to the 8-bit code structure specified here, and ISO/IEC 646 conforms to the 7-bit code structure specified here. Note
It is now arranged in three main sections as follows: 1 General 2 Character Sets and Codes 3 Code Identification and Escape Sequences
