O.K. I will post gzip files to 'Patches' section. I will send A,
B,C,G and I in this time.

 A: gnuplot-ja.doc.gz
 B: term-ja.diff.gz
 C: README.ja.gz
 G: wgnuplot-ja.mnu.gz
 I: README.win-ja.gz

The Japanese RTF file is not make correctly by "make rtf", so we
have to do as the followings:

% cd docs
% patch -p1 < ../../doc2rtf-38j0.diff
% make clean
% make 'CFLAGS=-g -O2 -DJAPANESE -DALL_TERM_DOC' doc2rtf
% gcc -o testrtf1 ../../testrtf1.c
% ./doc2rtf gnuplot-ja.doc tmpf
% nkf -s -Lw tmpf | ./testrtf1 > gnuplot-ja.rtf

where doc2rtf-38j0.diff and testrtf1.c are for encoding of the 
Japanese (8bit) RTF file which are available as

 http://takeno.iee.niit.ac.jp/~foo/gp-jman/data/doc2rtf-38j0.diff
 http://takeno.iee.niit.ac.jp/~foo/gp-jman/data/testrtf1.c

and nkf is the standard Japanese encoding filter from EUC-JP 
(using Japanese Unix) to Shift_JIS (using Japanese MS-Windows).

For making other format files like LaTeX, PDF, we also need some 
additional instructions, or do another way for the Japanese 
document.
