I wasn’t really trying to second-guess how you might have done this in the 
past; more, I was suggesting how you could do it without having “discovered” 
this effect previously. It definitely isn’t a standard behaviour of 
NSLayoutManager, and going that route seems a fairly complex solution to what 
is a pretty easy challenge. There’s nothing wrong with using a timer for this- 
it’s safe, easy, will cooperate with the rest of your app well and doesn’t even 
require any subclassing, though you might want to wrap the functionality up 
into a view or other class that you can give a string and the teleprinter 
effect just magically happens.
