  Now, apply the REAL lithmus test to it - does it work with non-USASCII
  character sets?   Any Macintosh-program ought to.  If it doesn't then
  it can't be well written...

  PS. I can send you the necessary Swedish character-set resources to
  put in your system/ remap you keyboard for you to find out.  If it
  does work with these it should accept also other languages.
