What are ALT Codes? A More Technical Description

On the IBM Personal Computer, a computer user could enter a special character or symbol from IBM’s Code Page 437 / DOS by
holding down the ALT key and entering the decimal code (0, 1-255) on the numeric key pad that corresponds to the special
character or symbol, giving rise to the term “ALT codes”.
Later on, when Microsoft introduced their new proprietary character sets in Windows, such as Windows Code Page 1252 and later
Unicode, many users had grown accustomed to Code Page 437, and memorized the decimal codes for it, that Microsoft chose to
retain it and their decimal codes.
Microsoft added the ability to enter special characters and symbols from their new proprietary character set, Windows Code Page
1252, by typing a leading 0 (zero) before their corresponding decimal codes (0, 01-0255).
