Code Page 856

Like ISO 8859-8, it encodes only letters, not vowel-points or cantillation marks; Code page 856 includes all characters of ISO 8859-8. As non-localized issues of DOS (except for Hebrew MS-DOS a.k.a. HDOS) had no inherent bidirectionality support, Hebrew text encoded using code page 856 was usually stored in visual order;^{[citation needed]} nevertheless, a few DOS applications, notably a word processor named EinsteinWriter, stored Hebrew in logical order.

CCSID 9048 added the euro currency symbol and new sheqel sign, and added direction controls at code points A0 through A6_hex.
