I use emacs for text editing & email in English, Ukrainian, Japanese
and some others (like Russian which isn't worth mentioning:). Input
methods are in the leim package, fonts come with the linux
distribution, and there are some fonts from GNU emacs too.

I would love to hear what others use. Emacs is everything but xterms
(unfortunately) exist too :)
