You could use macros to change charset. One for each charset:
macro index <Esc>TI 'set charset=iso-8859-9' 'Change to iso-8859-9'
macro index <Esc>TK 'set charset=koi8-r' 'Change to koi8-r'
It is also possible to make a real toggle. This example uses an
external script:
macro index <Esc>T 'set charset=`charset-toggle`' 'Toggle charset'
where "charset-toggle" contains something like:
#!/bin/sh
# Find the current charset:
if test -f charset; then
charset=`cat charset`
else
charset=koi8-r
fi
# Toggle to the other charset:
if test $charset = koi8-r; then
charset=iso-8859-9
else
charset=koi8-r
fi
# save and output the new value:
echo $charset > charset
echo $charset

If you use UTF-8, you can mix any languages.
