Seth,

I cannot reproduce the issue at all.

Please make sure the hex value returned from -characterAtIndex: is actually incorrect.

The string attached to your message was very suspicious because they are in Arabic presentation forms.

For those in non-unicode mail readers, that is "an arabic
character, a division symbol, and an arabic character".

Wha?



To make sure that you can check what is being logged, I would use - writeToFile: o.s.s. and then check it out using TextEdit with probably the Unicode encoding. You can't rely on a console being correct to display these characters.


My sample code there is just reduced for brevity. The original bug is from looking at the resulting string after having been inserted into an NSTextStorage and displayed in an NSTextView, and is very certainly arabic/mathdivision/arabic.
