written just to change the font mask. any suggestions?
If you can't or won't use the Font Panel for some reason, what you
have is about right and will get worse as you add more and more font-
related traits you want to toggle or change.
But using the Font Panel is recommended as it's an interface
consistent with the vast majority of apps out there (for all its
flaws). In which case changing any font-oriented trait is a case of
implementing a -changeFont:(id) sender method and passing the sender
the currently selected font to its -convertFont: method, which does
lots of things - bold, italic, size, etc. Implement a -
changeAttributes:(id) sender in a similar fashion and also get shadow,
colour, underline, strikethrough, etc.
