	Not as of a couple of weeks ago, no!

    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^, YES!  It is almost impossible to
run KanjiTalk on a 1 meg machine. (NOTE: This is why the Kanji Fonts are in ROM
on REAL Kanji Macs)

	The only one that is marketed in the states is sold by Davka Corp of Chicago
and is fairly worthless.  It is very much like MacWrite with a few cutsie 
additions.  Not only that, but it is BUGGY!

	There are two programs that do this.  System Switcher from Canon, and another
one whose name escapes me.  Use the one that reboots the machine to work. The
other option is to install the Kanji information into your standard system so
that you get the text entry abilities of Kanji with the English menus of the
standard system (and this way you can run 6.0 and Kanji!)

	In the works!

	You are welcome.
