One should avoid confusing "item" with "text item"
Woops. Apparently. What do you know?
Too much OC scripting lately, and I realize that I always use 'text
item' when I want text items and 'character' when I want characters on
the general grounds of being as specific as possible. I only ever use
'item' on lists where the other two don't make sense. I guess I've just
assumed that 'item' was equivalent to 'text item' when used on strings
without ever testing it.
Sorry, Arthur...
