I’ve been working with simplified Chinese for some time now. You can indeed
move and manipulate the characters quite straightforwardly.
I do see some odd line breaks that show mostly in narrow fields.
If you are working with cross-platform (Mac/Windows) text, you won’t
necessarily get
Livecode 中文支持非常好。 您可以复制和粘贴。
อย่างไรก็ตามการตัดข้อความของ Livecode สำหรับภาษาไทยนั้นไม่ดีนัก
มันทำให้ตัวละครแตก

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:")
I won't pretend to know anything about Chinese.
BUT, I have just copy-pasted 你好 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. :-)

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?
