making a copy of text in document window


  • Subject: making a copy of text in document window
  • From: Boyd Collier <email@hidden>

I have a very simple document application with only one window showing the contents of a plain text file and a single button. When the button is pressed, I want to copy the text (without any of the formatting) into a buffer that I can manipulate. From Apple's documentation, I presume the text I want to copy is in an NSTextStorage object and that I can get at this from the NSTextView that shows the text in my window. But I don't know how to access this. Sorry for such a simple question, but I'm entirely new to OOP and Cocoa.
