Using CodeWarrior you'll have to look for a technote on how to
translate and import the strings. AFAIK the resource compiler has
a problem with determining menu spacing for Japanese fonts.
With GCC and PilRC (2.3) you can compile Japanese resources for
your app. The way I've done it was to get a list of Japanese
strings and import them into a raw text file, then let PilRC do
the rest. Unless you're running Japanese Windows or have a Japanese
text editor that can read double-byte encodings, the Shift-JIS char-
acteres will look like a bunch of high-ascii characters.
Someone more knowledgeable than me about this (like Ken Krugler)
might also be able to help you get started.
