The term "CJK" is often used to refer to those characters which are
common to Chinese and Japanese and Korean, viz. the ideographic
characters.
Doug,
you might want to talk to the author of UTN#14 then, because he seems to
be using the term "CJK text" in a sense that I find indistinguishable
from the way Jim did.
Any relation of yours?

PS: I too think that replacing the "CJK text" with "Katakana and Hangul"
as a more specific choice, would have been an improvement- as written it
makes the problem sound more open-ended than it is. But you guys are
arguing about an E-mail subject line, of all things....
