  Your terminal may be unable to display some non-@sc{ascii}
characters.  Most non-windowing terminals can only use a single
character set (use the variable @code{default-terminal-coding-system}
(@pxref{Specify Coding}) to tell Emacs which one); characters which
can't be encoded in that coding system are displayed as @samp{?} by
default.

  Windowing terminals can display a broader range of characters, but
you may not have fonts installed for all of them; characters that have
no font appear as a hollow box.

  If you use Latin-1 characters but your terminal can't display
Latin-1, you can arrange to display mnemonic @sc{ascii} sequences
instead, e.g.@: @samp{"o} for o-umlaut.  Load the library
@file{iso-ascii} to do this.
