-@cindex 8-bit character codes
-@noindent
-If you specify a code in the octal range 0200 through 0377, @kbd{C-q}
-assumes that you intend to use some ISO 8859-@var{n} character set,
-and converts the specified code to the corresponding Emacs character
-code. Your choice of language environment determines which of the ISO
-8859 character sets to use (@pxref{Language Environments}). This
-feature is disabled if multibyte characters are disabled
-(@pxref{Enabling Multibyte}).
