  Hi,

  Well I've taken a look at ArenaCJK.  It's definitely a work in
progress, shall we say.  As far as I can tell it does not display
Japanese or Chinese properly at all.  It seems to be unable to allocate
a color map properly, so uses a private one.  It crashes quite freely
and hangs up on the simplest of tasks (though it display the jpg image
in my homepage.html just fine). 

  On the plus side, I absolutely love the Zoom-in/Zoom-out buttons
(which seem to work fine - and I cranked the magnification up to 
where individual Roman letters occupy a 2cm x 2cm square).  This is
great for those of us who don't see quite as well as we used to.

  Arena will have to go through a few more iterations before it is of
interest to anyone other than hard-core core dump aficionados.
Oh well.
