   Look in the contributions folder at cambridge.apple.com.  There is a
   kanji-fred editor contributed by a professor in Japan (I beleive).

I'm just an MCL programmer in Japan. Thanks for using kanji-fred.

Kanji-fred can edit English and Japanese on KanjiTalk. But it is a
bilingual editor, not multilingual.

   That should be a good place to start.

I know nothing about Chinese or ChineseTalk, but I think it is easy to
enhance kanji-fred to edit Chinese too. But it is trilingual editor,
not multilingual.
