The problem is that it's necessary to print a long list with vectors
that contain characters.  For example:

(prin1 '(("'A" . [?Á])
         ("'E" . [?É])
         ("'I" . [?Í])
         ("'O" . [?Ó])
         ("'U" . [?Ú])
         ("'Y" . [?Ý]))
       (current-buffer))

currently prints:

(("'A" . [193])
 ("'E" . [201])
 ("'I" . [205])
 ("'O" . [211])
 ("'U" . [218])
 ("'Y" . [221]))

whereas it would be nicer to print characters as characters,
not as integers:

(("'A" . [?Á])
 ("'E" . [?É])
 ("'I" . [?Í])
 ("'O" . [?Ó])
 ("'U" . [?Ú])
 ("'Y" . [?Ý]))

I can't find a variable that could change the output format
of integers to print them as characters.
