I just wrote asking for Unicode help, and found a solution in one of Devin Asay's helps. I'm writing scripts to help my students move simple Unicode text files (if there is such a thing) into a Windows-based linguistic program called Toolbox. This program seems to only recognize UTF8 text. So using Devin's command
put unidecode(the unicodeText of fld "x","utf8") into url theFile The file opens with the correct rendering in Toolbox. I so wish Livecode could just 'do Unicode' without my having to hassle with so many coding tricks, but I think this is not so much a Livecode issue, as living in the complex world of Unicode. rand _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
