@kbd{C-q} followed by a sequence of octal digits inserts the character
with the specified octal character code. You can use any number of
octal digits; any non-digit terminates the sequence. If the terminating
character is @key{RET}, it serves only to terminate the sequence; any
other non-digit is itself used as input after terminating the sequence.

overwriting with it.)
