For a minimal solution, you could just use rangeOfString:options: to find the parentheses. Depends on whether you might have multiple pairs, whether you might have parentheses inside pairs and how you want to treat that, whether you also want to remove the whitespace adjacent to but outside the parentheses, etc... First, define your problem. :) _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
