In GNU Emacs 25.3.1 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.22.19)

In the "GNU Emacs Lisp Reference Manual", at node 2.3.3.4
"Meta-character syntax", in the first paragraph, the sentence:

"The integer that represents such a character has the 2**27 bit set"

should read:

"The integer that represents such a character has the 2**7 bit set"

as indicated in the second paragraph of the node.

Please disregard, I got confused between the integer & ASCII
representation, and thought there was a type when there was none. Sorr
for the noise!

No, 2^27 is correct for characters in general.  The latter is only
relevant for ASCII characters that are part of a string.
