To Geoffrey Noer!

In the mailing list I read that b18 was to be released 
and I was happy. Now is time to widen the experience, 
to import the source, not only the binaries!
But, recently I have found that swedish, danish and 
german users have complained about the national charac-
ters, typed by using the Alt Gr shift key. They simply
do not work, they say.
Do we have to wait for a soon coming b18.1 version or
for a small national characters' patch?
For us this is a real obstacle because those letters
are as frequent in our languages as are the characters
of the english language.

Thank you for your important development!

Tage
