That is just the internal representation of the character in Emacs. It's
not important. What matters is what Emacs writes to your file. When you
write out utf-8 (for example by giving the command
(set-buffer-file-coding-system 'utf-8) it will write out C3 A4, whereas if you use (set-buffer-file-coding-system 'latin-1) it will write
out E4.
So you mean that at a - what should I call it? - "text semantic level" the utf-8 char and the latin-1 char has the same meaning?
