 As far as i know, Java and JavaScript are languages with full, complete
 unicode support. That is, they allow names to be defined using unicode.

 Can you explain what you mena with the names here?

As in variable names, function names, class names, etc.

 How do you even *enter* these characters?  My browser seems to trap all
 the special character combinations, and I *know* you don't mean
 selecting from a character palette.

 ࿿ hey, this is weird...

 I've got something happening, but I can't tell what.

 Yes, I'm an ignorant Western world ASCII user.  :-)

What OS are you using? In Windows XP, you'd have to let the XP know that 
you're interested in input in languages other than English via Control 
Panel - Regional Settings - Languages - Text Services and Input 
Languages. There, you'd add input methods other than English. Each input 
method works in a sort of unique way, so you'll just have to learn them. 
For example, under English, you can use the keyboard input method which 
probably is what you're using now, or the handwriting recognition input 
method, or the speech recognition input method to insert english text. 
There are other input methods for the Asian languages (e.g. Chinese, 
Japanese, etc.)
