Olivetti M10 national versions
|
||||||
|
------------------------------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The Olivetti M10 came in five different national versions. Each had a
|
||||||
|
different keyboard and a different character map. I have included the US
|
||||||
|
and UK versions, for which I had access to original character sets.
|
||||||
|
Furthermore, the Italian version is documented in the
|
||||||
|
[Italian-language operations guide](https://archive.org/details/m10guidaoperativa/page/n179/)
|
||||||
|
and some of the mappings of the German version are remarked upon at
|
||||||
|
[Retrochallenge 2016/01](https://www.masswerk.at/rc2016/01/). These sources
|
||||||
|
are consistent with the assumption that these versions used the same
|
||||||
|
mappings as documented in the
|
||||||
|
[BASIC guide for the Olivetti M20](https://archive.org/details/m20linguaggiobasic/page/n425/)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The following code points differ:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| |`23`|`40`|`5b`|`5c`|`5d`|`60`|`7b`|`7c`|`7d`|`7e`|

Notes:
|
||||||
|
- All five sets contain the same glyphs; only the codepoint mappings differ.
|
||||||
|
- These mappings agree with the DEC National Replacement Character Sets.
