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
