"  To type international characters (£åäö) in bash, add the following lines
to your ~/.inputrc file and restart bash:

	set meta-flag on 
       set convert-meta off 
       set output-meta on 
	set input-meta on
	set kanji-code sjis
	set meta-flag on"

  That doesn't exactly work for me: all it does is make the £ key generate
"\243" instead of actioning the insert-comment binding.

    cheers,
