I didn't think it'd be of general interest. However, there is nothing
special in there, so feel free to do whatever you wish with the code.

Aha. Thanks.
I'd started debugging, but didn't get too far, having got burried in
the GSTextLayout stuff.

Well the final program needs to use non default styles anyway...
BTW - From reading the source, it seemed to me that NSTextContainer
could do with the addition of a method like:
- (id)init
{
return initWithContainerSize: NSZeroSize;
}
simply to ensure that the instance variables get initialised to
something sensible if/when code does:
textContainer = [[NSTextContainer alloc] init];
(or uses the 'new' method). This in spite of the comment
in the code about zero sized containers.
From observing the class contents under OSX (10.4.11) I noticed
that it does initialise all of its instance variables when
-init is used - picking an NSSize of (10000000,10000000).
