+ATTENTION
+===============================================================
+
+This test is about non-ASCII password input compatibility between
+JDK 5.0 and later versions. Before running the test, make sure that --
+
+    \$J5 points to a JDK 5.0 installation
+    \$JM points to the current installation
+
+The password string used in this test is $PASSW. If you find difficulty
+entering it in in your system, feel free to change it to something else
+by providing \$ALT_PASS. It should be no less than 6 characters and include
+some non-ASCII characters.
+
+For each test, type into the characters as described in the test header.
+<R> means the RETURN (or ENTER key). Please wait for a little while
+after <R> is pressed each time.
+
+\$J5 is now $J5
+\$JM is now $JM
