look forward to feedback on Unicode,
I was anxiously awaiting Unicode, but after playing with it for just a few minutes, it doesn't seem to be working very well yet (Mac OS 10.1.5, Jpnese kotoeri input). You can now type and edit Japanese OK in a single field, which is nice, but you cannot seem to move anything from one field to another via script without it messing up (although copy/paste works OK). Moreover, if you want to delete or move a single Jpnese 2 byte character, you must still treat it as two characters (eg. delete character 1 to 2 of field 1 deletes just the first Jpnese character). This contrasts with Hypercard, which just 'knows' whether a character is 2 byte or not (it's beautiful thing).
Also, the IDE has an annoying bug where if you accidently type some Jpnese into the message box, you cannot simply delete and switch back to English but must close and reopen the message box. Hopefully that will be gone in the real release.
