I recently solved a problem that's been bothering me for a long time. My
TinyFugue wouldn't display scandinavian characters. More recently, the "si"
emote was really bothering me, as it comes across as "sm" instead of "sí" and
somebody I chat with regularly started using this a lot. As a side note, if
you just read "sm" and "sm" in those, you're suffering from the same problem
and this might apply to you.

Anyway.. on to the fix. I run Ubuntu, so your mileage may vary. The steps to
fix this are:

1. manually sudo edit the file /var/lib/locales/supported.d/local
- add the missing locale: en_US ISO-8859-1
- You might add fi_FI.ISO-8859-1 ISO-8859-1 instead if you're in Finland, or
other similar locale depending on where you live.

2. sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales

3. in .tfrc add: /setenv LANG=en_US.iso88591
- or /setenv LANG=fi_FI.ISO-8859-1

Restart tf. Hope this helps somebody else.
