Re: glyph generation errors in the layout manager

As Eric wrote this will only work, when the coding methods handle the 
linkTextAttributes and this is only true for keyed-coding. If you would 
be using NIB files then things should work. For keyed coding this gets 
handled by NSTextViewSharedData, a class we don't use for normal coding. 
Looks like somebody will have to implement all the missing attributes 
here :-(
