Windows Character Set Codes
MenuBox supports the following Windows character set codes for the display of simple window mode texts. If no character set is explicitly set by means of the CharacterSet key, the "ANSI" character set (Windows 1252, a variant of ISO-8859-1) is used.

The Johab character set is included with the Korean language edition of Windows. The Arabic and Hebrew character sets are included with the Middle East language edition of Windows. The Thai character set is included with the Thai language edition of Windows. The OEM value specifies a character set that is operating-system dependent. On Windows 95, 98 and Me the Default value indicates that the name and size of a font fully describe the logical font. On Windows NT, 2000, XP and Server 2003 the Default value indicates that the character set is set to a value based on the current system locale. For example, when the system locale is English (United States), it is set as ANSI.
