     Have you read "Electronic Transfer of Japanese" by Mr. Ken R. Lunde?
This article is "a description of how to send and receive *real* Japanese
text (i.e., kana and kanji) using electronic mail".  In Part 9, he
describes the software for editing, sending, receiving, displaying and
printing Japanese characters (for IBM and Mac).  I believe this is a good
source for the information about Japanese word processors.
     A current copy of this article is available at:
           by anonymous FTP at ucdavis.edu (128.120.2.1) in the
              pub/JIS directory under the name japan.inf;
           by downloading from CompuServe;
           by contacting the author;
           by contacting me.
     I got this article from the author three weeks ago.
           His electronic mail address is:
                klunde@vms.macc.wisc.edu (internet)
                klunde@wiscmacc (bitnet).
           According to him, BITNET is not so reliable for sending a file
     containing Japanese characters.  Tell him (or me) your Internet
     address if you have one.

     The article says that MOKE 2.0 can be ordered from:
           KiCompWare, Attn: J.J., 1812 N. Erb St., Appleton, WI 54911.
           ($49.95 plus $5.00 for shipping and handling)
     In case personal contact is required, Mr. Mark Edwards' address is:

     Could anyone tell me the information about Japanese CAI software?
