Thanks for all help, regarding "international characters for the swedish language". It seems to be more than one solution to the problem. The first one is:
export LC_CTYPE=sv_SE.iso-8859-1 insert this line in /etc/profile. And, all users on the system will been able to use the swedish characters. And, the second solution is: set convert-meta off set input-meta on set output-meta on insert these lines in /etc/inputrc. And, it works as well. However, are there any advantages/disadvantages using the first or the second method? My system already had the "set input-meta on" and "set output-meta on" in the /etc/inputrc, but the "set convert-meta off" was not activated. Why? Christian Ericsson
