    Hi

    I'm from Sweden and we have three more letters in our alphabet than you
    english-speaking people. When I use X there is no problem with that, but when
    I use VI in textmode it gives problems, I don't get the right ascii-signs.
    When I was using linux slackware (I still have a slackware partition) I
    solved the problem with a file called .inputrc in the homedirectory
    containing this:
    set meta-flag on
    set convert-meta off
    set output-meta on

    This is of course not a problem when using free bsd because it doesn't
    understand my language anyway, but I want to write swedish texts in VI in
    textmode.

    /greetings from the country of the midnight sin
    /Mats
