This would be better handled with some sort of filter applied at I/O time (i.e. 
when you read/write the file) I would think. That is, let your model objects 
handle the translation, and let the view objects do what view objects are 
supposed to do. Trying to fiddle around with low-level NSTextStorage just seems 
to be a way to waste several afternoons pulling out your hair in frustration, 
methinks!
