rtfText twilight zone problem

[Mark Smith]

Josh, I just downloaded  your stack.

I'm using a mac , 10.4.11

In Rev 2.9, I see the same weirdness you describe, but under 3.0  
beta10, all is fine....

I can find no mention of rtfText bugs in the changeLogs, but it looks  
like something has got fixed.


Best,

Mark
