Multibyte Emacs supports only certain DOS codepages: those which can
display Far-Eastern scripts, like the Japanese codepage 932, and those
that encode a single ISO 8859 character set.
@ -542,16 +542,16 @@ The special features described in the rest of this section mostly
pertain to codepages that encode ISO 8859 character sets.
For the codepages which correspond to one of the ISO character sets,
Emacs it knows which ISO character set is that based on the codepage
number. Emacs automatically creates a coding system to support reading
and writing files that use the current codepage, and uses this coding
system by default. The name of this coding system is
@code{cp@var{nnn}}, where @var{nnn} is the codepage number.@footnote{The
standard Emacs coding systems for ISO 8859 are not quite right for the
purpose, because typically the DOS codepage does not match the standard
ISO character codes. For example, the letter @samp{@,{c}} (@samp{c}
with cedilla) has code 231 in the standard Latin-1 character set, but
the corresponding DOS codepage 850 uses code 135 for this glyph.}
