And the programmer does not know what the user is going to do, nor are systemwide settings the proper control. E.g. Say I have a program which allows the user to enter names for my specialized family address book. The name may be entered into that text-box in English, Hebrew, Arabic, Kanji... and the next in Hangul, the third Gaelic runes... Is there a way to tell it to figure it out at execution time from the user's data entry mode (language, etc.)... and have it "just work"? (Ditto for date entries, now that I think of it, and some of those date entries may be, e.g. 3345BCE which kind of blows a 1970 base and increment in seconds out of the water.) _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
