Thanks Wilhelm. I have submitted the request the the site you cited. I think it should be very easy for RR to include the clickWord function in the Revolution vocabulary.

And thanks for the extension. I try it out.

The website for reporting bugs and enhancements is

I second you enhancement request.

Your "kludge"-solution is surely one of the best you can come up with in
Revolution. The only problem you could encounter is the case when the
text of the line contains more than one instance of the word, because
wordoffset always finds the *first* instance of the word and not
necessarily the word you clicked at.

In a related context - getting the wordnumber of a clicked-at word in a
field and at the same time hilite the clicked word - I have found the
following solution:

Script of the text field:

on mouseUp
  Global gchunk, gtext
  put the mousechunk into gchunk
  put the mousetext into gtext
  send "mouseup" to btn "wordoffset"
end mouseUp

Script of btn "wordoffset":

on mouseUp
  Global gchunk, gtext
  put fld 1 into tField
  put tfield into tfield2
  put word 2 of gchunk into tBegin
  put "#" before char tBegin of Tfield2
  put "#" before gtext
  put wordoffset(gtext,tfield2) into tword
  put "word" &&tword&&"in field 1" into fld "wordnumber"
  set the traversalon of fld 1 to true
  select word tword of fld 1
 end mouseUp
