Look at the docs for "="; LiveCode CAN compare arrays using "=". I started out 
as has been suggested, and nearly gave up on my undo implementation because it 
was too cumbersome to iterate deep into a couple of elaborate arrays when I 
thought to check out array equality in the docs, and lo! it’s supposed to work! 
It never occurred to me that "<>" was not a permitted operator when "=" IS 
permitted.

It may not be a bug, but I think it’s a feature omission. I’m going to add a 
comment to both "=" and "<>". 

This cost me about 6 hours of lost hair!
