Subject: Russian/Polish/German in one unicode document without explicit switching?

Dear List, Dear Vladimir,

Since you have helped me so generously before, I want to present a new problem I
can't seem to solve, not before saying "thank you" again for that former advice that
kept my problems at bay until right now.

I would like to use three languages in one unicode document, preferably without
switching explicitly, that is, not (as I have done before) go
\russian âîò ïî-ðóññêèé
\german Hür Dütsch
\polish polska nie zginê³a

but instead just switch languages using other unicode characters, that is just write
Polsk¹ Dütschland ÐÔ.
(in Unicode)

Since, after all, this is one of the ideas of unicode, I reckon this to be possible.

I can't seem to figure how. Since this is surely not a very original question, maybe
somewhere there is a easy, step-by-step, introduction somewhere, which you could
point me to (I could actually even write one for dummies like myself once I know what
to do).

By the way, I use Tex Live 6b (9/2001) on a win98 machine.

I've looked through all the documents I could find and tried out the unicode package
(ucs) to no avail. I presume the solution to my problem is very simple -  can you help
me?

Thanks sincerely,

Ruprecht
