How are you?  is considered three words by Rev.

Working with text dialog, how would one get Rev to respond to _"How_ as the first of three words, _are_ as the second, and _you?"_ as the third? I'm thinking I want to change the double quotes for "smart quotes" or curved quotes before acting on the text, but how is that handled by Rev?

Replacing the quotes with single or curly quotes will count as a character and you'll get unusual results (word 1 will be 'How). Replacing the straight quotes with empty will give you the actual text string. Or if you want to get fancy:

  put quote & "how are you" & quote into tStr
  put word 2 of the value of word 1 of tStr -- "are"

Re-reading your note, I think I misunderstood. You actually do want to include the quote character as part of the word, right? In that case, yes, replacing quotes with curly or single quotes will give you what you want.
