@mattn @xor That's what v1.2 is using, and when it encounters Japanese text, it pretty much reports a random language each time.

@Gargron @xor because some unicode code point is shared between japanese/chinese.

@mattn @xor uh no, it doesn't support either of those, so it just reports it as french, german, italian, polish, etc randomly
