There is an interesting problem with computer translation, which needs
to be kept in mind and that is character encoding.
There is some risk of scrambling everything and not knowing if you
don't speak the language.
(This would be equivalent of taking a text in plain ascii and
displaying it in rot13 encoding. Unless you can read the language, it
would look just fine to you if you can not read latin script).
