Wiki Markup
There are several national variants of ASCII. Therefore, the original ASCII is often referred as *US-ASCII*. The international standar _ISO 646_ defines a character set similar to US-ASCII, but with code positions corresponding to US-ASCII characters @\[\]\{\|\}

...


as "national use positions". It also gives some liberties with characters #$^`~. In _ISO 646_, several "national variants of ASCII" have been defined, assigning different letters and symbols to the "national use" positions. Thus, the characters that appear in those positions - including those in *US-ASCII* are somewhat "unsafe" in international data transfer.
