CP037 (IBM Code Page 37, EBCDIC 037) is a character encoding for the EBCDIC character set with some extended characters in an 8-bit range, in a variety used by IBM in the US/Canada markets. It was later updated as CP1140 to add the euro symbol at code point 9F.
The repertoire of printable characters in this encoding is the same as ISO 8859-1 (Latin 1), so it is possible to do round-trip conversions. If control characters are included, they don't all correspond exactly, but can still be converted if arbitrary assignments are made consistently.
