On my box I can produce all the tokens you are asking for:
å Å ø æ ç Ç é á à É
It's a question of your 'locale' definition on Linux (Unix).
What's showing you a command 'locale'?
Here it will show
LANG=C
LC_CTYPE=de_DE
LC_NUMERIC="C"
LC_TIME="C"
LC_COLLATE="C"
LC_MONETARY="C"
LC_MESSAGES="C"
LC_ALL=
Maybe you have to set an
export LC_CTYPE="sv_SE"
in your $HOME/.bashrc and you will also get the keys you want
after running a console command 'source .bashrc'.
bye - Wilhelm
