ISO/IEC 8859-14

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

ISO 8859-14, also known as Latin-8 or "Celtic", is an 8-bit character encoding, part of the ISO 8859 standard. It was designed originally to cover the Celtic languages, such as Gaelic, Welsh and Breton.

ISO-8859-14 is the IANA charset name for the character encoding ISO/IEC 8859-14 used together with the control codes from ISO/IEC 6429 for the C0 (0x00-0x1F) and C1 (0x80-0x9F) parts. Escape sequences (from ISO/IEC 6429 or ISO/IEC 2022) are not to be interpreted. This charset has aliases iso-ir-199, ISO_8859-14:1998, ISO_8859-14, latin8, iso-celtic and l8.
