Kanji do not appear. about mecab HOT 1 OPEN

Hey Alex,

Another user here! I imagine this problem is long gone for you by now but here 
are my two cents.

I've had a problem like this in the past. For me it was just a text encoding 
issue: my locale was utf-8 and the MeCab dictionary I had installed was euc-jp.

My solution might work for you:

$ python
Python 2.7.3 (default, Aug  1 2012, 05:14:39)
[GCC 4.6.3] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import MeCab
>>> m = MeCab.Tagger()
>>> encoding = m.dictionary_info().charset
>>> input_bytes = u"今おはよう。".encode(encoding)
>>> result_bytes = m.parse(input_bytes)
>>> print result_bytes.decode(encoding)
今      名詞,副詞可能,*,*,*,*,今,イマ,イマ
おはよう        感動詞,*,*,*,*,*,おはよう,オハヨウ,オハヨー
。      記号,句点,*,*,*,*,。,。,。
