Unicode strings: Difference between revisions

 

The ZX Spectrum does not have native Unicode support. However, it does support user defined graphics, which makes it is possible to create custom characters in the UDG area. However, there is only 48k of memory available on a traditional rubber key ZX Spectrum, (or 128k on some of the plus versions), and 510k would be needed to store the Unicode characters for display, so Unicode is not really viable on this platform.
