IBM code page 421 (CCSIDs 421 and 4517)[1][2] is an EBCDIC code page used in IBM mainframes in Algeria, Morocco, and Tunisia for Arabic and French.[3] Note that the official charts show a and u with acute, probably an error for a and u with grave (shown below) as a and u with acute are not used in French.
