ISO 6438

{{Short description|ISO standard}}

ISO 6438:1983, Documentation — African coded character set for bibliographic information interchange, is an ISO standard for an 8-bit character encoding for African languages. Developed separately from the African reference alphabet but apparently based on the same data sets, it has had little use; its forms are retained in Unicode.{{cite book |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=s9HCl8in_AAC&pg=PA51 |page=51 |title=African Languages in a Digital Age: Challenges and Opportunities for Indigenous Language Computing |first1=Don |last1=Osborn |first2=Donald Zhang |last2=Osborn |publisher=International Development Research Centre |year=2010 |isbn=9780796922496}} FreeDOS calls this Code Page 65504.{{cite web |url=https://github.com/FDOS/cpi/blob/master/CPIISO/codepage.txt |title=Cpi/CPIISO/Codepage.TXT at master · FDOS/Cpi |website=GitHub }}
