NSTextStorage *is* a model object. It's far better to actually understand and and use the text system (including glyph generation) rather than "fake it" by transforming the model on read/write and ensuring your transformations are perfect mirrors, are applied at the right times, and correctly interact with the pasteboard, undo manager, Services, Input Methods, and VoiceOver. --Kyle Sluder _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
