For most Lisp programming, you don't need to be concerned with these two representations. - Sometimes key sequences are represented as strings. When a string is -a key sequence, string elements in the range 128 to 255 represent meta -characters (which are large integers) rather than character -codes in the range 128 to 255. + Sometimes key sequences are represented as unibyte strings.
