As mentions, Unicode in a field just works (there is a known issue with
Thai word breaks and another with printing Hindi)
If you want to get Chinese (traditional or simplified) into a field, you
can:
1) get the text from a Utf8 ot utf16 text file and textDecode it i.e
put url ("file:"&filepath) into tContent; put
textDecode(tContent,"utf8") into fld "someField"
2) get the text from an RTF file, like the above, but set the rtfText of
the field to the imported rtf data
3) use a 3rd party library, like Wordlib (see the livecode store) to
read Microsoft Word .docx or Open Office .odt files

Hi!
I would like to be able to copy and paste into fields and scripts Chinese
characters, which are of course unicode and then manipulate the resulting
strings.
Is this possible in livecode? How? Are there any good Recent guides to working
with unicode in livecode?
