Slava,
I made a slider, make it rather wide and add a field where to put the

The slider has this code:
---

set the endValue of me to the length of field "TextToClick"
end mouseDown
on scrollbarDrag tValue

it worked on a self assembled russian text including em-dash and guillemets
but not on your text.
This works on your text:

get word 4 of the clickCharChunk

Slava,
no contribution to the puzzle but maybe to more sleep: the HTMLText works
for selecting «—» and copying it. And all words afterwards.
No order in the chaotic universe, just managing it, word by word :)
Kind regards

Thanks for your fantastic work, Slava !

Congratulations.
It works very nicely and fast. If you add a lock screen/unlock screen you
shave off a couple of milliseconds which would pay off hugely in the long
run for the days you had to spend solving that... :)
Of course I still don't understand unicode so the HTML version I tr

byteToNum(byte 1 of the russian letter R) is 32 which is (TADA) SPACE and thus
a word delimiter. Did I mention I hate unicode and the way it currently (not)

Hi Slava,
I tried your example of mixed unicode and ASCII words. Using the word

Hi Richmond,
The itemDel can be only one char/byte long. If the useUnicode is true, then
numToChar(32) returns 2 bytes. Hence the error. The docs are correct.

Is there an equivalent to the mouseText, or the mouseChunk, or the

Hi Slava,
Instead of simply pasting the text into LiveCode, do the following:

Now you can do this:

end mouseDown
or whatever you w
Hi Jacque,
That's wrong for unicode, because it will catch one NULL too many, either at
the beginning or the end of the string, depending on whether it is small or big
endian (which depends on the processor that LiveCode is running on).
If you're really desperate, you might use this approach an

Unfortunately, the word boundaries don't "quite" work, and I think it's for

Does the "word" delimiter work? If so, you could try this in the field:
