Actually there is a patch changing wish to wish8.5 (IIRC), i'll try to remove it tonight and see what happens. As i said, this happens on all lucid installations with a Norwegian interface. I can write the norwegian characters on computers with a non-norwegian interface. All i've done is install ubuntu, and apt get install amsn.

Like I said, it doesn't make sense.. downgrading to 0.98.1 could have fixed it maybe because it uses tcl/tk 8.4 instead of 8.5 or the contrary,. or maybe one package had a patch that changed 'wish' to 'wish8.5' in the amsn file... Or maybe you use some input method that fails to work properly...
anyways LocutusOfBorg clearly showed a screenshot of it working, you seem to be the only one with the problem and I'm guessing you are doing something wrong.. and like I said, aMSN has ZERO CODE for handling that, it's all tk, so it's not aMSN, it can't be aMSN and it can't be a bug from one version of aMSN to another.

Status in “amsn” package in Ubuntu: New

Bug description:
Binary package hint: amsn

The norwegian charachters øæå can not be typed into an amsn chat.
I'm guessing that this also affects other languages.
This is a regression from Karmic

I have tried wiping the .amsn folder with no success.
