Both the Professional 300 and P/OS support the Digital
Multi-national Character set.  By using eight rather than
seven bits to represent a character, the character may be
used to define both the ASCII characters and other
characters including most Western European Characters.  The
compose key allows typing of composite characters not
represented on the keyboard legend.
 
The P/OS Hard Disk User Interface is a hierachy of menus and
forms through which the user interacts with the operating
system, utilities and applications.  A menu may be a list of
applications, a list of files or directories, or a list of
other menus.  Included are File Services, Print Services and
Environment Services.
