[MacRuby-devel] strings to yaml

Hello everyone,

I notice that NSMutableString nicely turns into a plain string when  
you #to_yaml it.

Thats great since plays nicely with other ruby code.

NSString however becomes "!str:NSString"       -       is that by  
design?

It would not matter to me except that #stringValue from NSTextFields  
returns NSString - which i must first copy to a NSMutableString before  
I #to_yaml it.

Just wondering if there is a more elegant way.

Cheers,
John
