You are right. using
(encode-coding-string "ינרק דוהא on Beta" 'hebrew-iso-8bit)
gives the same result.
But if (by mistake) I do:
(encode-coding-string "ינרק דוהא on Beta" 'iso-latin-1)
I get: ",Hipxw(B ,Hced`(B on Beta"
which is wrong for me (it includes Escape sequences that are bad
for my unibyte - wrong number of characters).
With multibyte to unibyte - I may get a wrong character (if it is
not in my charset) but I get the number of characters right.
Ehud.
