4) In case you are using Emacs or XEmacs, try the cjk-enc.el file
   which is part of the CJK package
   (ftp://ftp.ffii.org/pub/cjk/devel/cjk-current.tar.gz).  This is
   similar to 3) (i.e., Emacs uses multiple character sets), but all
   the nasty details are done automatically behind the scene.

   cjk-enc.el may be of interest also if you need more character sets,
   especially CJK scripts.
