I need to append an NSString to an NSTextView and there doesn't seem to be a
non-hackish way of doing it.

Right now, to do this, I'm:

NSRange currentRange = [textView selectedRange];
NSRange allRange;
NSRange appendRange;

[textView selectAll:self];
allRange = [textView selectedRange];
[textView setSelectedRAnge:currentRange];

appendRange = NSMakeRange(NSMaxRange(allRange), 0);

[textView replaceCharactersInRange:appendRange withString:appendString];

This doesn't feel like the one-true-way. What would a more appropriate way
to append text be?

Later,
