Summary: Python not handling cText

Initial Comment:
I have the following AppleScript which I have also converted 
to Python:

tell application "CodeWarrior IDE"
    activate
    open file file1
    disassemble file file2
    set xText to (get text of document 1)
end tell

I had some difficulty converting the last command into 
Python, but the below should work (or so I have been told):

import CodeWarrior, time

cw = CodeWarrior.CodeWarrior(start=1)
time.sleep(5)
cw.activate()
cw.open(file1)
cw.disassemble_file(file2)
time.sleep(5)
xtext = app('CodeWarrior IDE').document[1].text

However, instead of the text that I expect, xtext is equal to 
'app('CodeWarrior IDE').document[1].text.all'

Bill Fancher looked at CodeWarrior and said that it is 
returning cText which is not being handled by Python.
