 Ironic, isn’t it, that DEC has long had a presence in Western Europe. And
it had its “DEC Multinational Character Set” in the days before Unicode.
 But it seems that’s all gone now, and even long-time DEC fans have lost
the ability to deal with that.

Nobody has lost anything. Same situation as back then.
Just software instead of hardware. And therefore
easier.
With a VT220 you needed a swedish/danish keyboard instead
of the US keyboard.
With a Windows PC you need swedish/danish keyboard
installed instead of US keyboard installed. Well - one
can have multiple keyboards installed which makes it
a little easier to switch. And there is the Character
Map thingy exposing everything.
