INMEMO supports the full eight-bit Latin-1 character set for compatible terminals, such as the AM65. An optional add-on, ISOTRAN, can be purchased to provide the ability to support the Latin-1 character set in a mixed environment of seven- and eight-bit terminals. This is accomplished by providing a compose function to input special characters with multiple keystrokes, and a configurable translation table for mapping display characters to the nearest suitable symbol (graphic or text) on the target terminal at display time.
