Yeah. um. Basically, the pyobjc_unicode object is not an empty string. (I get this object by calling editor.string(), where editor is a NSTextView instance.) But when I try to feed it into a NSMutableArray via addObject:, the resulting array has an empty string where the pyobjc_unicode's contents should be. However, if I feed unicode(self.Data) into the NSMutableArray, it contains the string it should. Moreover, when I create a tiny demo of the problem, it actually works fine, which means I probably have crufty code somewhere. Hate it when that happens. _______________________________________________ Pythonmac-SIG maillist - Pythonmac-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonmac-sig
