In think it is just a display issue. Characters are just integers in
ELisp. So for integers below 256, C-x C-e (eval-last-sexp) shows you
the character value, in case that is what you really wanted to know.
Try C-x C-e on the expression ?a (place the cursor on the trailing
space), to see what I mean.
Hope this helps, benny
