Re: carbon events in MLTE

John,

We are in the process of finishing a QA for MLTE.
It will contain examples on how to use Carbon events in MLTE and other
questions we've been getting from developers.
We'll update the PDF documentation later on of course.
TXNSetTXNObjectControls is actually described in the documentation, you'll
find MLTE doc here:
http://developer.apple.com/techpubs/macosx/Carbon/text/MultilingualTextEngin
e/Multilingual_Text_Engine/index.html

Hope this helps,

X
