Just to be pedantic, there are several on Windows. They encode the
coding form (Unicode codes being best thought of as an assignment of
natural numbers to characters, with certain approved ways of storing
those numbers), e.g. Code pages 1200 (little-endian UTF-16), 1201
(big-endian UTF-16), 12000 (little-endian UTF-32), 12001 (big-endian
UTF-32), 65000 (UTF-7) and 65001 (UTF-8).
