Right, I also noticed eval-expression-print-format's docstring refers to
`prin1' which seems to be wrong.

 (defcustom eval-expression-print-maximum-character 127
   "The largest integer that will be displayed as a character.
-This affects printing by `eval-expression-print-format'."
+This affects printing by `eval-expression' (via

   :type 'integer

 (defun eval-expression-print-format (value)
   "If VALUE in an integer, return a specially formatted string.
 This string will typically look like \" (#o1, #x1, ?\\C-a)\".
 If VALUE is not an integer, nil is returned.
-This function is used by functions like `prin1' that display the
-result of expression evaluation."

Right.  Is it okay to have nested parentheses?  I use this quite often
when I write emails and such, but I have the idea it might be frowned
upon in more formal contexts.

+@code{eval-expression-print-maximum-character} (see below) allows it).

Yeah, I have a tendency to be overly terse.

+@code{eval-expression-print-maximum-character} prevents integers which
+are larger than it from being displayed as characters.
