Hi,

thanks for pointing me at mulse-ucs. This is what I needed. As I am
using Anthy to input japanese, I use a different .emacs (found somewhere
on the net):

sorbet【~】$ cat .emacs
(when (not window-system)
  (set-keyboard-coding-system locale-coding-system)
  (set-terminal-coding-system locale-coding-system)
)

Then, I have to activate mule-ucs by invoking emacs like :
sorbet【~】$ DEB_MULEUCS_UNICODE=on emacs

Only with this combination I can mix french and japanese... In many
other cases, either the cursor is not correctly positionned, or emacs
just hangs when I input kanjis (but not kanas).

Have a nice day,
