NSTextView will usually take care of making sure that the selection is
a reasonable range. One complication is that in general NSTextView
supports multiple discontiguous selection ranges, and if such a
selection is in use, calling just -selectedRange will ignore it.

Am I
missing a simple method that will do this?
[[myTextView string] substringWithRange:[myTextView selectedRange];
(Warning, composed in Mail. Potential thorny issues with text
attachment characters, surrogate pairs, composed characters, marked
text… "the selected text" isn't as simple of a concept as it may
seem.)
