Word counter crashing LiveCode?

[Keith Clarke]

Thanks Alex & Paul - that’s working nicely now.

It has also introduced me to:
A unicode text subtlety that I’d missed since I last dabbled with LiveCode pre-7
Arrays, with a useful worked example, which are clearly more efficient for this kind of process but a learning curve that I’d been avoiding ;-)

Best,
Keith
