Hi David,

As a J user with Korean language as a mother tongue, I have that pain, too.
Currently I deal with it in two options:

1. HTML table :

2. using unicode character width data with fixed width fonts :
http://www.jsoftware.com/jwiki/JuneKim (see the box.ijs and unicodedata.ijs)

With either of options, I can get workable results -- however, I admit
there is an additional inconvenient effort each time I want to see the
boxed result.
