no, you did not :) yes, emacs provides one a library of emacs input
methods (for ascii keyboards) -- LEIM. this works with emacs compiled
with MULE (multilingual extensions). compiled binaries are available
for windows at ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/windows/emacs/
and information can be obtained at http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/
if you will need fonts which support lots of languages, get the
intlfonts package from ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/intlfonts/
it will work not only in UNIX X11, but also in windows 9x/nt.
you should read the "Emacs FAQ for the Microsoft Windows port"
referenced in the http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/ page on how to
install intlfonts in windows for emacs.
emacs provides the following input methods (other could be added
easily):

for example, the `cyrillic-translit' input method allows one to type
cyrillic letters on latin keyboard. e.g. `y' will be converted to
cyrery, but if followed by `a', it will be converted to `cyrya'
(`ya' -> cyrya); `yo' -> cyryo, etc. of course, it is possible to
enter cyrery followed by cyra, too. this way, not only russian letters
could be typeset.
Best,
v.
