CCSID is an IBM "term" but certainly not an IBM concept and as far as
saying everything on the PC was ascii, well that's oversimplifying it.
MS-DOS used code page 437 which as I said was what the original zip spec
stated the file names should be in - and it still does - although
there's an extension flag that allows an archiver to also include names
in UTF8. Anyway I think we're beginning to start veering of topic so
I'll leave it at that.
