Also, if you're comfortable with editors/emacs, it has Japanese input method as well. Check set-input-method command. Here's the setup I used for that: emacs-24.3p5-no_x11 ja-sazanami-ttf-20040629p2 rxvt-unicode-9.20p1 ~/.Xdefaults: urxvt*font: xft:DejaVu Sans Mono:pixelsize=20,\ xft:Sazanami Mincho ~/.xsession: export LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8
