Line 1: [[Microsoft]] uses two main groups of '''[[code pages]]''' in Windows (known as [[character encodings]] in other operating systems). The [[original equipment manufacturer\|OEM]] code pages are used in console windows and can be considered a hangover from [[DOS]] and the original [[IBM PC]] architecture. The [[ANSI]] code pages are used for non-[[Unicode]] apps in the [[Microsoft Windows]] [[graphical user interface\|GUI]]. Two single-byte, fixed-width code pages (874 for [[Thai language\|Thai]] and 1258 for [[Vietnamese language\|Vietnamese]]) and four multibyte [[CJK]] code pages (932, 936, 949, 950) are used as both ANSI and OEM code pages. Both ANSI and OEM code pages are [[extended ASCII]] code pages. Code page 1258 uses [[combining diacritic]]s, as Vietnamese requires more than 128 letter-diacritic combinations. This is in contrast to [[VISCII]], which replaces some of the [[C0 and C1 control codes\|C0]] control codes. ==Charts of single-byte code pages==
