I found this out by experimenting myself... It raises maybe an inter-
esting issue: what if an argument is used as input *and* output ar-
gument? Is there a general policy being followed behind returning
compound results, or is this a case-by-case decission?

Hmm, one more of these implicit things to know... I wish Apple would
use a some smarter way of isolating categories into seperate header
and documentation files...

BTW, it works nicely and helped me in producing a promissing pre-
alpha version of a would-be reST-editor-like prototype thingy:

Beware, this is pretty slow and I should better do the rendering
using an NSTimer or so instead of whenever the input text changes...
but it's a start...
