The standard doesn't currently have a definition for basic execution
encoding. The basic execution character set is the basic source character
set plus some control codes corresponding to the standard escape sequences.
The extended execution character set is that plus everything else that can
be represented. The values assigned to the characters are locale-specific.
There is also the wide execution character set.
