Be sure to read the text system documentation on working with the text 
storage.  There are a number of useful things to note--for example, 
multiple changes can be grouped for efficiency by surrounding them 
with beginEditing/endEditing calls.  If your text view is editable and 
you wish your changes to participate in undo etc. alongside other user 
changes, you need to notify the text view with should-change/did-
change calls.
