I plan to override NSTextView's toggleAutomaticQuoteSubstitution: to
handle the toggling myself in such a way that a group of text views

defaults binding in each one and will just change the user defaults
value from my override).
Does that toggle method just reverse the value, or does it do
something else as well that I need to be aware of, something that
won't be done when I override and don't call super's implementation?
I suppose I could pass the reversed value to user defaults *and*
call's super's implementation with the only ill effect being that
the setter is called twice, but if it isn't necessary I'd prefer not
to.
-toggleAutomaticQuoteSubstitution: is a convenience action method; the
primitives are the getter/setter pair, -
isAutomaticQuoteSubstitutionEnabled/-
setAutomaticQuoteSubstitutionEnabled:. If all you want to do is
control the state of quote substitution, you can certainly use the
getter/setter methods directly to do that--that's what they're there
for.
