+	    specifiers from the C type.  This makes it possible, for instance, to control
+	    whether a C "char" argument takes a Lisp character or a Lisp integer value.
+	    The default (taking Lisp characters) is done by these built-in typemaps:
+	      %typemap(ffitype) char ":char"; %typemap(lisptype) char "character";
+	    If char means an integer instead, use these typemaps:
+	      %typemap(ffitype) char ":char"; %typemap(lisptype) char "integer";
