I'm just wondering two things. Is command-clickng on a hilited word an OS thing, or does each application implement this feature independently? If it's an OS thing, it might not be not very hard to implement. In that case why doesn't LC do it? I.e., not just spell-check but all those other cute tricks -- look up on google, look up in the dictionary, cut, copy, etc?
It's an OS X Service and apps can hook into it if they want. I suspect LiveCode doesn't do it because of its cross-platform nature. None of the other operating systems have it and branching the engine code to support a single OS is probably a lot of work. It wouldn't make our jobs any easier either, since only apps built for Macs would work with it.
