When you say "UCS", are you referring to the 3800/3900 page-printer
"Universal Character Set" buffer?  I.E., the character set one loads to
the printer to output text to actual paper?  Or do you mean something to
do with this new-fangled "Unicode" system?

Googling for CECP +IBM yielded better results than just CECP.  The
acronym "CECP" is apparently also used by various types of organizations
around the globe.  The very first hit with "CECP +IBM" led to here:

http://www-306.ibm.com/software/globalization/cp/cp_cpgid.jsp

And the parent page of that one is even more helpful:

http://www-306.ibm.com/software/globalization/g11n-res.jsp

That last one is now in my IBM favorites folder.

Shmuel, thanks very much for the keyword recommendation.  Very helpful.

For the archives, what Shmuel didn't say was that CECP stands for
"Country Extended Code Page".
