Let me confirm first which Slang you're talking about, Mr. Kohda.

There is a Slang with Japanized patch, which is called slang-ja or
ja-libslang.  It seems to differ from original in many places though
I've not tested well.

On the other hand, I always use Slang with SLANG_HAS_KANJI_SUPPORT,
which I made changing only one line from original source.

    in src/sl-feat.h from
        #define SLANG_HAS_KANJI_SUPPORT         0
    to
        #define SLANG_HAS_KANJI_SUPPORT         1

I'm not sure you're thinking Slang with SLANG_HAS_KANJI_SUPPORT has
problem in inputting Japanese.

It seems I have to make Lynx with Native Language Support first.  I
want to try it in this weekend.
