Hi Jonathan,
This works for me:
on mouseUp
set the textFont of btn 2 to "Lucida Grande,Unicode"
set the text of btn 2 to the unicodetext of fld 1 --replacetext(the
unicodetext of fld 1,uniencode(cr),cr)
end mouseUp
I'm not sure whether menus get confused if the line delimiter is actuall NULL &
cr instead of just cr, but it doesn't seem to matter (much).
