Hm... /etc/default/locale has the following content LANG="en_US.UTF-8" So I guess that's what I have. > FWIW, there's also norwegian-postfix input method, which might me less > intrusive than a full-blown latin method: Actually I have the norwegian characters on my keyboard. What I miss most, are the ones I didn't have on my keyboard that the latin mode provided (the a and o umlaut, the degree sign etc.). I had a look at the swedish-postfix method, but the character combinations used would be too intrusive, I think. The "o to get an umlaut, and the // to get a degree sign, are "programmed" into my fingers, and I find myself typing them, and being disappointed when the expected thing doesn't happen...:-)
