Subject: Microsoft Far East SDK kit & Windows 3.1

I wonder how many members of this list requested the free Microsoft
Far East Windows Software Development Kit. What arrives Air Express is
a 10-inch stack of manuals and a CD-ROM disk full of software,
including Chinese Windows 3.0, Japanese Windows 3.0, and Korean
Windows 3.0.

Has anyone tried any of these versions in conjunction with Windows 3.1?
Are there any conflicts? Does Microsoft Word for Windows 2.0 or other
software seem to work smoothly under any of them?

Has anyone discovered or devised a way to enter Japanese _kana_ under
Chinese Windows?

Can you get both Jianti and Fanti characters under Chinese Windows?
Are the references to a ROM card in one of the manuals intended for
specialized applications?

Does anyone regularly patch characters from a Chinese program for
Windows into another Windows (Western language) wordprocessor?

Many thanks,
