(1) ``jbase'' is a package of basic tools: ``lha'' is an archiver widely used under MS-DOS especially in Japan, ``pf'' is a print tool for Japanese line printers.

(2) ``jless'' is a Japanese pager, which automatically judges the character code set in the document and converts it to display depending on the environment variable of LESSCHARSET which most Linuxers set as ``japanese-ujis'' in Japan.

(3) ``pcurses'' is a curses with a Japanese handling feature.

(4) ``jman'' is a manpage system with Japanese nroff, which enables you to look up the Japanese man pages.

(5) ``dic'' looks up a dictionary in 8cm CD-ROM, widely available in Japan for ``Data Discman'' made by SONY or for its compatibles. Also included is an e-lisp code to call it from your emacs.

(6) ``recjis'' will recover damaged Japanese documents encoded in JIS, SJIS, or UJIS code set which might have lost some information through network transfers or by other accidents.

(7) ``jelvis'' is Japanese elvis(vi clone), while ``ng'' a subset of Japanese Emacs. Use them with ``uum'', ``canuum'' or ``kinput2'' to input Japanese characters.

(8) ``nemsup'', ``nemuty'', and ``nemlisp'' are necessary to use NEmacs, the Japanese Emacs. The current JE contains NEmacs-3.3.2 based on emacs-18.59.

(9) ``mulelisp'', ``mulesup'', and ``muleuty'' are necessary to use Mule, the Multi lingual Emacs. The JE-0.9.3 has Mule-1.0pl1 (KIRITSUBO version).

(10) ``skkbin'', ``skkdic'', and ``skkman'' are SKK, a Japanese input method, accessible by Mule with ``muleskk'' or NEmacs with ``nemskk''. JE-0.9.3 comes with SKK-6.32.

(11) ``bash'', ``tcsh'', and ``zsh'' are enhanced shells. ``bash''(bash-1.13.5j) and ``tcsh'' will pass 8-bit Japanese characters.

(12) ``vnem'' and ``vnemx'' are naked NEmacs based on emacs-18.59 without support of any input method for the console and X respectively. You don't have to install these if you decide to use either Wnn, Canna or sj3.

(13) ``vmule'' and ``vmulex'' are naked Mule-1.0pl1(KIRITSUBO version) without support of any input method for the console and X respectively. You don't have to install these if you decide to use either Wnn, Canna or sj3.

(14) ``jgsbin'', ``jgslib'', ``jgsgnt1'', and ``jgsfnt2'' makes a Japanese Ghostscript system which is an interpreter of Japanese PostScript, based on Ghostscript-2.6.1. The only allocated devices in JE binary kit are X window and VGA console. Run ``gslx'' script to use it on the console. Note that older JE used to contain a version of gs which required libsvga.so. Install libsvga.so.1 in Slackware of obtain new JE, if you have this.
