[Biococoa-dev] KDTextView update

[Alexander Griekspoor]

Hmm, Koen take a look at the methods I override in the textview I  
shared, it solved all those problems already.
For instance by using this:

- (BOOL)readSelectionFromPasteboard:(NSPasteboard *)pboard type: 
(NSString *)type{

	// the docs say to call this first, so we do ;-)
	[pboard types];
	// try to read a string, if not succesful bummer, otherwise insert it
	NSString *aString = [pboard stringForType: type];
	if(aString){
		[self insertText: aString];
		return YES;
	}
	else
		return NO;	
}

You can read strings, rtf etc.
And you also have to override both setString and insertText.
I just checked out the svn, but your updated BCSequenceView was not  
committed..
Cheers,
Alex
