I have an NSTextView which the user enters text, I need to pass the

How do I get the the [NSString cString]? I seem to need to navigate
NSTextStorage but I'm getting lost in the documentation.
NSTextStorage is a subclass of NSMutableAttributedString, which is a
subclass of NSAttributedString, so doing something like this ought to
work (where "textView" is the name of the NSTextView):
const char *cText = [[[textView textStorage] string] UTF8String];
