  ISO 8859-1 National Character Set FAQ
ISO 8859-X character sets use the characters 0xa0 through 0xff to represent national characters, while the characters in the 0x20-0x7f range are those used in the US-ASCII (ISO 646) character set.
TCP and ISO 8859-1 TCP was specified by US-Americans, for US-Americans.
While ISO 8859-X was designed for considerable portability, texts are still restricted mostly to their character set and portability to other cultural areas is a problem.

  ISO/IEC 646 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
ISO 646 is an ISO standard that specifies a 7 bit character code from which several national standards are derived, the best known of which is ASCII.
Since the portion of ISO 646 shared by all countries specified only the letters used in the English alphabet, other countries using the Latin alphabet with extensions needed to create national variants of ISO 646 to be able to use their native languages.
The ISO 10646 standard, directly related to Unicode, supersedes all of ISO 646's and ISO 8859's sets of national-variant character encodings with arguably one unified set of character encodings.

Die nationalen Versionen in ISO 646 wurden ab den 1980er Jahren in der Praxis durch den de facto-Standard der 8-Bit-MS-DOS-Codepages des IBM-PC und durch die ebenfalls achtbittigen ISO 8859-Zeichensätze abgelöst -- letztere werden z. B. in Linux und MS-Windows verwendet.

ISO 4873 specifies that columns 02 to 07 (subset G0) are identical with those of ISO 646, including its options.
Moreover, if control characters described in ISO 646 are used, their allocation in the table positions of columns 01 and 02 (subset C0) are the same.
ISO 6429 specifies additional control functions which are elements of the C1 set and the bit combinations used for their representation.

 Seven-bit terminals
Using this code set, support for European languages is limited and involves modifying the ISO 646 code set.
The generic term for such variations of the seven-bit ISO 646 code set is "seven-bit ISO 646 national variant" code sets and one exists for each Western European language.
For example, in the French ISO 646 national variant terminal the up arrow control sequence is defined as (0x1b, 0x5b, 0x41).

 A tutorial on character code issues
The ISO 8859-1 standard (which is part of the ISO 8859 family of standards) defines a character repertoire identified as "Latin alphabet No. 1", commonly called "ISO Latin 1", as well as a character code for it.
ISO 8859-16 is for use in Albanian, Croatian, English, Finnish, French, German, Hungarian, Irish Gaelic (new orthography), Italian, Latin, Polish, Romanian, and Slovenian.
Thus, if the message was ISO 8859-1 encoded and contained the Ä (upper case A with dieresis) character, encoded as octet 196, the E-mail program used on the Mac should use a conversion table to map this to octet 128, which is the encoding for Ä on Mac.

Thus UTF-8 has the capability of handling existing ISO 646 files without change, and all codes in the ISO 646 range (having an octet value in the range 0-127) can be safely assumed to be representing the normal ISO 646 character.
For UTF-8 the representation of ISO 646 data is exactly the same, and for ISO/IEC 8859 parts, right hand side characters will need two octets for representation.
D.3.3 Communications Current ISO POSIX standards do not address communication, but as ISO 6429 control characters are often used in communication, and the UTF-1 transformation format was originally created for avoiding control character problems in communication, UTF-1 could be the choice.

Puisque que la portion d'ISO 646 partagé par tous les pays n'est constituée que des lettres de l'alphabet anglais, les autres pays, utilisant un alphabet latin, eurent besoin de créer des extensions et des variantes nationales de l'ISO 646 dans le but d'utiliser les lettres spécifiques à leurs langues.
Les normes ISO 646 et ISO 8859 sont en principe obsolètes, et remplacées par l'ISO/CEI 10646 (liée à Unicode).

ISO 2022 was developed as a technique to attack both of these problems: to represent characters in multiple character sets within a single character encoding, and to represent large character sets.
The escape sequences are registered with ISO and are often three characters long starting with the ASCII ESCAPE character (hexadecimal 1B, octal 33).
Although the ISO 2022 character sets are still in common use, particularly ISO-2022-JP, most modern e-mail applications are converting to use the simpler Unicode character encodings such as UTF-8.
