That's right, writing C and shell commands is almost impossible on a terminal with a swedish character set. Even Pascal is a bit hard, but some compilers will accept (* *) instead of { } and (. .) instead of [ ].
If you have a terminal with selectable character sets, you can train your editor to switch, depending on what type of text you are editing. I have set up EMACS so that it selects the right character set on my VT100 depending on what mode I'm in (which in turn is controlled by filename suffixes). This works even if I have two windows, one with C code in it and the other holding a document in swedish.
