I don't fully understand the technology, but...

The encoding mechanism in that client code works exactly the same as the
UTF-8/RACE encoding (since the Chinese, Japanese, and Korean character sets
are all subsets of UTF-8) but you still need to send the encoding type of
UTF-8 (instead of Big5 or ShiftJIS or whatever)
