That part is very easy.  (And I explained it many times already.)

The hoops the user should go through to make Emacs 8-bit-clean in an
8-bit-clean TTY should be completely documented, in one section of the
manual.  (It would be yet greater if this were available via an
environment variable, such as

 env EMACS_8BIT_CLEAN=1 emacs -nw

).
