How can ICE Console font display two accents aigu (é) with 0233 and 0130

17 Views Asked by At

How is windows mapping character codes to a font like ICE Console? I have a particular case.

I have noticed that ICE Console will display alt+0130 and alt+0233 as é. The glyph seems slightly different. Notepad ICE Console Example

Another example, in linux using putty, translation setting "use font encoding", the results are the same as above. Same results in microsoft word.

Using character map in windows. I cannot locate the glyph accent aigu 0130, but I can locate 0233.

How is windows able to locate the glyph é in ICE Console with both 0130 and 0233 ?

I am trying to understand how fonts are mapped to character codes, so I can troubleshoot database issue where codepages CP437 and ISO8859-1 are mixed.
