copy-paste and Japanese text

[Dar Scott]

Perhaps the data is put onto the clipboard in multiple styles.  Perhaps the different applications look at different styles in different orders.  The LiveCode clipboardData property might be useful in seeing what is actually put on the clipboard in a copy.  If need be, you can use that to control your copy-to-clipboard.
