Re: textview / test storage string copy problem

[Dr. H. Nikolaus Schaller]

Just a short thought, because I am not following this topic intensively.

I would have been astonished if NSTextStorage would return a copy.

I rather think the NS(Attachment)Cell should make a copy on setStringValue:

>> [cell setStringValue:[[aNotification object] string]];  // copy value to cell
