Hello, I'm currently putting together a very basic
typewriter emulator (basically a crippled text editor
that acts like an old, real-world typewriter; yes, I
know it is a backward step, but it's fun project).
Is there a way to have letters overwrite one another
using the NSTextView text system? Eg., so that I could
merge a "g" with an "X" (in my emulator, I would like
it so that if the user goes back and types, instead of
the text getting inserted and moving text after it
forward, it will overwrite the old text). Not sure if
this is at all possible, but I'm sure I read somewhere
ages ago about something like this (probably imagining
it).
Many thanks in advance,
Keith
