Humpf . . .
There I with a locked scrolling list field and I want to click on the
word "glaikit" in line
3, and if I use 'clickText' I get the whole sentence "He's a muckle
glaikit gowk",
and if I use 'clickChunk' I get this 'char 24 to 49 of field 1' which is
no good either.
Now, if Livecode had 'clickWord' I would be able to get "glaikit" 'just
like that'.

I am well aware of this:
http://www.sonsothunder.com/devres/livecode/tips/mous003.htm
which does provide some sort of a work-around, but does have this rider:
" if there is any trailing punctuation, this is returned as well"
mind you, there are some of us who are getting a peerie bit tired of
endless work-arounds.
