Dear Erling, Thank you.
I did that. I actually set both LC_ALL and LC_CTYPE. It was helpful that you stated it worked for you. I used your information and investigated more. It turned out that the problem was in the shell that I use. I use C shell, csh. When I change the shell to Bourne shell, sh, I am able to type æ, ø, and å. Could you check whether you can reproduce my problem by entering csh and typing æ, ø, and å? If it is confirmed, I think I would like to file a bug report.
