I'm trying to emulate the double-click behavior of an NSTextView
where it selects the word under your mouse.
I am able to set the insertion point on a single click using the
characterIndexForPoint: method.
What's the best way to go from there to selecting the word (or
space) where they have clicked?
NSTextView's method for this is -
selectionRangeForProposedRange:granularity:. If you're doing this
without a text view, the underlying implementation is in
NSAttributedString's -doubleClickAtIndex:.
Note that -characterIndexForPoint: is intended for input methods, not
for setting the insertion point. Try -
characterIndexForInsertionAtPoint: instead.
