Hi!
I would like to be able to copy and paste into fields and scripts Chinese characters, which are of course unicode and then manipulate the resulting strings.
Is this possible in livecode? How? Are there any good Recent guides to working with unicode in livecode?

I won't pretend to know anything about Chinese.
BUT, I have just copy-pasted ?? from a Google Translate window into an
LC text-field.
I have, also, copied Chinese ideographs from one text-field and posted
them into a second one.
Dead easy. :-)
Richmond.

As mentions, Unicode in a field just works (there is a known issue with
Thai word breaks and another with printing Hindi)
If you want to get Chinese (traditional or simplified) into a field, you
can:
1)? get the text from a Utf8 ot utf16 text file and textDecode it i.e
put url ("file:"&filepath) into tContent; put
textDecode(tContent,"utf8") into fld "someField"
2) get the text from an RTF file, like the above, but set the rtfText of
the field to the imported rtf data
3) use a 3rd party library, like Wordlib (see the livecode store) to
read Microsoft Word .docx or Open Office .odt files

On the first day, God created the heavens and the Earth
On the second day, God created the oceans.
On the third day, God put the animals on hold for a few hours,
and did a little diving.
And God said, "This is good."
