No, AFAIK its just the rendering engine.  There is a different utility 
for katakanji etc input processing, remapping the keyboard etc, but I 
don't recall the name of it, sorry.

But with canna running, emails & web pages using those character sets 
generally display just fine.  Being a font junkie, I've spent the last 
6 years collecting fonts, and the list that firefox opens in the prefs 
is probably 2 to 3 screens high, and includes lots of them that I 
couldn't pronounce with a gun to my head.

I suspect that if you install the appropriate i8n language packs, you 
will get enough of those fonts to be functional.

Good luck!

People having trouble with vz bouncing email to me should add the word
'online' between the 'verizon', and the dot which bypasses vz's
stupid bounce rules.  I do use spamassassin too. :-)
