//         * Spellout rules for Japanese.  In Japanese, there really isn't any
//         * distinction between a number written out in digits and a number
//         * written out in words: the ideographic characters are both digits
//         * and words.  This rule set provides two variants:  %traditional
//         * uses the traditional CJK numerals (which are also used in China
//         * and Korea).  %financial uses alternate ideographs for many numbers
//         * that are harder to alter than the traditional numerals (one could
//         * fairly easily change a one to
//         * a three just by adding two strokes, for example).  This is also done in
//         * the other countries using Chinese idographs, but different ideographs
//         * are used in those places.

        // Can someone supply me with the right fraud-proof ideographs for
        // Simplified and Traditional Chinese, and for Korean?  Can someone
        // supply me with information on negatives and decimals?
