That seems kind of broken in this case -- it's quite common for "phonetic" characters to be intermixed in a word with latin characters, and certainly nobody thinks of those boundaries as being word boundaries. What else is the "script" info used for? [Of course it would also be good if `C-u C-x =3D' mentioned the script of a character.] -Miles --=20 Do not taunt Happy Fun Ball.
