 @chapter All about surfaces
 @cindex surface, what it is
 
+A @dfn{surface} is the varnish added over a charset so it fits in actual
+bits and bytes.  How end of lines are exactly encoded is not really
+pertinent to the charset, and so, there is surface for end of lines.
+@code{Base64} is also a surface, as we may encode any charset in it.
+Other examples would DES enciphering, or gzip compression (even if
+Recode does not offer them currently): these are ways to give a real

 @cindex trivial surface
 The @dfn{trivial surface} consists of using a fixed number of bits
 (often eight) for each character, the bits together hold the integer
