There's a neat trick to make phrases or any other group of more than one word
double-clickable.  Use option-space instead of space.  Option-space is treated
the same as a letter so HyperCard thinks it's all one word.  Of course, this
also means your phrases can't wrap across lines, but every silver cloud has a
grey lining!
