In most uses of @w{ISO 2022} the defined character sets do not allow
state changes which cover more than the next character. This has the
sequence of a character one can interpret a text correctly. Examples of
character sets using this policy are the various EUC character sets
(used by Sun's operations systems, EUC-JP, EUC-KR, EUC-TW, and EUC-CN)

But there are also character sets using a state which is valid for more
than one character and has to be changed by another byte sequence.
