system, including the letter that stands for it in the mode line

  Each of the coding systems that appear in this list---except for
@code{no-conversion}, which means no conversion of any kind---specifies
how and whether to convert printing characters, but leaves the choice of

coding system using the minibuffer.  If you specify a coding system
that cannot handle all of the characters in the buffer, Emacs warns
you about the troublesome characters when you actually save the
buffer.

@kindex C-x RET c
@findex universal-coding-system-argument
  Another way to specify the coding system for a file is when you visit
the file.  First use the command @kbd{C-x @key{RET} c}
(@code{universal-coding-system-argument}); this command uses the

@cindex specify end-of-line conversion
  You can also use this command to specify the end-of-line conversion
(@pxref{Coding Systems, end-of-line conversion}) for encoding the
current buffer.  For example, @kbd{C-x @key{RET} f dos @key{RET}} will
cause Emacs to save the current buffer's text with DOS-style CRLF line
endings.
