Thanks Paul.

I went to file a bug report and saw that Kenji Kojima filed one against LC 6.7.0 when the problem first occurred:

   http://quality.livecode.com/show_bug.cgi?id=12430

I didn't realize the feature had been deprecated. Ben Beaumont commented:

   This feature was going to be deprecated from LiveCode 7.0 onwards
   because modern fonts no longer use the language meta property.

Live and learn.

Thanks -
Phil

 From my simple tests, this seems to have been broken sometime after LC5.5.5, 
that’s the only version I have installed that doesn’t return ascii for every 
font installed on my Mac.

I tested;

LiveCode 5.5.5.app

LiveCode 6.7.8.app

LiveCode Commercial 6.7.11 (rc 2).app

LiveCode Indy 7.1.1.app

LiveCode Indy 7.1.4 (rc 2).app

LiveCode Indy 8.1.2.app

LiveCode Indy 8.1.3 (rc 1).app

LiveCode Indy 9.0.0 (dp 4).app

Hi folks,

In LC 8.1.2 I have checked 'the fontLanguage' of all my installed fonts and get 
nothing but 'ansi', even for my Arabic fonts. In some previous version of LC my 
experience was different - guess I'll go digging and see what I find.

Does anyone have different outcomes with fontLanguage() in 8.1.2?

Thanks -
Phil Davis
