Is DWB 3.1 now 8-bit clean?  That is, can I type ISO Latin-1 characters
into my workstation and expect to see them on output?

And is DWB 3.1 now multi-byte clean?  Is it able to produce output for
Kanji PostScript and other output devices intended for East Asia?  I've
seen "A Troff Tutorial" in Kanji, so this is a distinct possibility.

If the answer to both questions is yes, then DWB 3.1 is worth $30,000.
