+/** 
+Specifies the mixin protocol for getting and setting character and paragraph 
+format attributes. 
+
+It is inherited by classes which support character and paragraph formatting, 
+e.g. CRichText and CGlobalText. Its purpose is to allow developers to apply 
+and retrieve formatting without needing to know which type of editable text 
+is involved.
+
+All functions defined in this class use a document position and a length. 
+These values are only relevant to rich text. In general, they must be valid 
+(i.e. the range must not extend beyond the bounds of the document), or a panic 
+occurs. In global text, formatting is applied globally, so that the length 
+and position values are ignored.
