Sorry, I didn't read all emails before suggesting this.

Or maybe introduce a persistent 'useUnicodeChunks' property that
controls which kind of chunking is used.

What are the pros and cons of making the 'useUnicode' property
persistent and true by default, and let it determine the meaning of
'word'? To my own immature understanding, that seems like a better
approach that trying to come up with a new vocabulary item.

Hi All,
We're in the process of adding some new chunk types in LiveCode 7
and we
would appreciate suggestions for a particular chunk name.
The new chunk types are:
naturalword (breaks on unicode word boundaries)
sentence (breaks on unicode sentence boundaries)
paragraph (Same behaviour as current 'line' chunk)
The first chunk is called 'naturalword' because 'word' is already in
use.
Renaming the current 'word' chunk to 'token' to free up 'word' is
not an
option for backward compatibility. We are also limited by the current
parser which doesn't allow us to use the form:
put natural word 1 of "this is a string of words"
'naturalword' is the clearest internal suggestion at the moment and
we'd
love to get the input from community members if there is an even
clearer
option.
Warm regards and thank you for your input.
Ben
