    That’s “Extended ASCII”, basic ASCII only has upper and lowercase latin characters and things like <, =, >, and ?

    And probably half of the control codes are still used, mostly in their original form too, teletype systems. They’re just virtual these days.

      No, I’m pretty sure the weird o with the leg is in basic ASCII. It’s also missing Latin characters like Æ. It’s a very weird standard.
