You may also find some of your questions answered in:
- <http://czyborra.com/>, section "Unicode in the Unix Environment"
  (which contains much more than the section header is suggesting),
  in particular:
  - <http://czyborra.com/charsets/cjk.html>
  - <http://czyborra.com/charsets/codepages.html#CP932>
- <http://liinwww.ira.uka.de/bibliography/index.html>
  (try something along the lines of "(Multi-Byte) AND (Character Set)")

Best wishes,
