ISO/IEC 6937:2001, Information technology — Coded graphic character set for text communication — Latin alphabet, is a multibyte extension of ASCII, or rather of ISO/IEC 646-IRV. It was developed in common with ITU-T (then CCITT) for telematic services under the name of T.51, and first became an ISO standard in 1983. Certain byte codes are used as lead bytes for letters with diacritics (accents). The value of the lead byte often indicates which diacritic that the letter has, and the follow byte then has the ASCII-value for the letter that the diacritic is on. Only certain combinations of lead byte and follow byte are allowed, and there are some exceptions to the lead byte interpretation for some follow bytes. However, there are no combining characters at all are encoded in ISO/IEC 6937. But one can represent some free-standing diacritics, often by letting the follow byte have the code for ASCII space. ISO/IEC 6937's architects were Hugh McGregor Ross, Peter Fenwick, Bernard Marti and Loek Zeckendorf. ISO6937/2 defines 327 characters found in modern European languages using the Latin alphabet. Non-Latin European characters, such as Cyrillic and Greek, are not included in the standard. Also, some diacritics used with the Latin alphabet like the Romanian comma are not included, using cedilla instead as no distinction between cedilla and comma below was made at the time. IANA has registered the charset names ISO_6937-2-25 and ISO_6937-2-add for two (older) versions of this standard (plus control codes). But in practice this character encoding is unused on the Internet. The ISO/IEC 2022 escape sequence to specify the right-hand side of the ISO/IEC 6937 character set is Single byte charactersThe primary set of ISO6937/2 is based on ISO 646-IRV (characters 0x00..0x7F) before the 1991 revision, that is with character 0x24 still denoted as a "international currency sign" (¤) instead of the dollar sign ($): !"#¤%&'()*+,-./0123456789:;<=>?@ ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ[\\]^_` abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz{|}The supplementary set (characters 0x80..0xFF) contains a selection of spacing and non-spacing graphic characters, additional symbols and some locations reserved for future standardisation. Two byte charactersThe characters, which are not represented in the primary set, are coded on two bytes. The first byte, the "non spacing diacritical mark", is followed by a letter from the base set e.g.: small e with acute accent (é) = [Acute]+e In total 13 diacritical marks can be followed by the selected characters from the primary set:
Codepage layoutThe reference to combining characters in the U+0300—U+036F range for the codes in the range 0xC1—0xCF below are only indicative of which “accent” is usually intended by that lead byte. ISO/IEC 6937 does not encode any combining characters whatsoever. Instead, there is an explicit list of precomposed characters that are encoded. A little anomaly is that Latin Small Letter G with Cedilla is coded as if it were with an acute accent, that is, with a 0xC2 lead byte, since due to its descender interfering with a cedilla, the lowercase letter is usually with turned comma above: {{nobr|Ģ ģ}}. Unicode distinguishes 0xE2 into D with stroke and uppercase Eth, which usually look different for the lowercase letters (0xF2 and 0xF3).
