Tips to use Japanese with KDE2-current

1. apply belove patch to bug fix klocale.cpp
    and to support Japanese in kcharsets.cpp

2. set ja/chatsets
    % echo eucJP > $KDEDIR/share/locale/ja/charset
    or
    % echo eucJP > kde-i18n/ja/messages/charset
    and install kde-i18n

3. don't use unicode fonts with konsole
    9x15.pcf.gz console8x16.pcf.gz console8x8.pcf.gz
    with konsole don't has Japanese Characters.
    So, if you would use these, you couldn't show Japanese fonts.

4. set KDE_LANG to ja_JP.eucJP

5. don't exec kwin with Japanese locale.
    kwin hung up when execute it with Japanese locale.
    Where to hung up is XCreateIC in Qt.

So, you can see Japanese in menu.
But konqueror doesn't show Japanese.
