the file, look at the coding system mnemonic letter near the left edge
of the mode line (@pxref{Mode Line}), or type @kbd{C-h C @key{RET}}.

@vindex buffer-file-coding-system
  Once Emacs has chosen a coding system for a buffer, it stores that
coding system in @code{buffer-file-coding-system} and uses that coding
system, by default, for operations that write from this buffer into a
file.  This includes the commands @code{save-buffer} and

@findex unify-8859-on-decoding-mode
  The command @code{unify-8859-on-decoding-mode} enables a mode that
``unifies'' the Latin alphabets when decoding text.  This works by
converting all non-ASCII Latin-@var{n} characters to either Latin-1 or
Unicode characters.  This way it is easier to use various
Latin-@var{n} alphabets together.  In a future Emacs version we hope
to move towards full Unicode support and complete unification of
character sets.
