Korakurider,

The input handler for m17n is adapted from Japanese input interpreter. The 
changes seem fairly minor (e.g. intercepting Japanese marks in input) but I 
don't understand the different code pages involved to be able to merge them. On 
Linux/Unix, input method engines could be used convert legacy encodings into 
UTF-8 so it seems safe to use UTF-8 encodings except when dealing with old 
VMs.

I would also invite other CJKV users to add their lang codes to 
M17nEnvironment>>supportedLanguages and see if it works.
