Text_more Inherits From: MySuperObject Conforms To: MyProtocol Declared In: Text_more.h Depends On: MySecondClass.h Category Description This category is intendet to simplify the work with NeXTs Text class. Currently it only adds methods that will allow you to cut/copy and paste to a specified pasteboard. This is very useful because it is nasty to currupt the main pasteboard when dealing with the normal cut/copy/paste methods. The mecahnism of cut/copy/paste is very powerful when combined with the Texts find method. In the future we should have better methods for finding lines, strings that spand multiple runs (different fonts etc.) and many other things that we are used to from the MiscStrings. Note: The implementation requires a nasty hack because it uses a yet undocumented pasteboard type for RTFD text selections. The source for MailHelper (by Izumi Ohzawa and Manuel Alberto Ricart) brought me to this idea. It was tested using NeXTSTEP 3.2 and should work on all the other 3.x releases too. Remember that making selections inside on text object using selectAll: and its companions causes other text objects to forget about their selections if they are both in the same window (firstResponder mechanism).
