Well, so far I have been able to display Russian and Chinese in
UTF-16.
The process I go through is a bit complicated for Chinese in Windows 98 as
I cannot write directly on the editor but I have to write using UTF-8
somewhere else, for example on my newsreader and then copy and paste in in
the editor and save it.
Opera seems to select the write encoding automatically.
