This would be better handled with some sort of filter applied at I/O time (i.e. when you read/write the file) I would think. That is, let your model objects handle the translation, and let the view objects do what view objects are supposed to do. Trying to fiddle around with low-level NSTextStorage just seems to be a way to waste several afternoons pulling out your hair in frustration, methinks!
