Code page 895

This is IBM's Code page 895, as used on AIX. For the Czech encoding sometimes called Code page 895 on DOS, see Kamenický encoding.

Code page 895 (CCSID 895)[1] is a 7-bit character set and is Japan's national ISO 646 variant.[2] It is the Roman set (first or left half) of the JIS X 0201 (formerly JIS C 6220) Japanese Standard and is variously called Japan 7-Bit Latin,[3] JISCII,[4] JIS Roman,[5] JIS C6220-1969-ro, ISO646-JP[6] or Japanese-Roman.[7] Its ISO-IR registration number is 14.[8]

Amongst IBM's code pages, it accompanies code page 896 (half-width katakana), which encodes the Kana set of JIS X 0201 with extensions, and code page 897 which encodes the 8-bit form of JIS X 0201. It is used in Unix-like systems and, when combined with code page 896 and the 2-byte IBM code page 952 and code page 953, makes up the four code-sets of code page 954, one of IBM's versions of EUC-JP.
