unicode & umlauts

[Richmond]

Dunno:

I just pasted THIS from NotePad into a textField in LiveCode 9 on Xubuntu:

Eine berraschung stellen dagegen Wrter,
wie doppelgaenger, schadenfreude oder
poltergeist, dar, die sich, laut dem
#Oxford #Dictionary, lngst im englischen
Wortschatz eingenistet haben.
Anscheinend ist die Eigenart des Deutschen,
lange Wrter wider Willen bilden zu knnen,
beliebter als sich so manch ein Brite oder
#Amerikaner eingestehen mchte.

Everything was preserved.

I performed the same exercise from LibreOffice with no problems.

Richmond.
