Hi Richmond,

My bad, should have been:

numtoChar(55357) & numToChar(56832)

Note that current versions of LiveCode don't really treat surrogate pairs 
properly - each codeunit of the pair is treated as a character so it is 
possible to do things like apply a style that only affects one of the two 
units. When this happens, the string gets split between the pair and it no 
longer works properly so be careful.

As I like to harp on about, this will be fixed in 7.0.

Regards,
Fraser
