No easy way I know of. The undo architecture relies on a huge amount of state within the app external to the undo stack itself. You'd have to save all of that state somehow. In fact, most apps throw away the undo history on a document save (you arrange this), as a way to recover the memory used by undo, since the whole state is being saved in the file anyway. Versions are the supported mechanism for persistent document undo. --Graham _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
