I have a couple of doubts regarding 
Namazu...
 
1. For Japanese documents Namazu 
stores indexes for the searched text in kana hence converts all Kanji's to kana. 
Therefore 
the search cannot differentiate between those two different 
Kanji charcaters. Is this 
true?  
 
2. Namazu uses software called nkf for 
Japanese processing. NKF 1.71 supports the following encoding - 7-bit JIS, 
MS-kanji (Shift_JIS) or EUC.
It does not support 
UTF-8. I heard NKF 2.01 onwards 
supports UTF-8 but the recommended 
version of NKF for Namazu 2.0 is NKF 
1.71???
