Well, it's not directly associated with cells, per se, but you can use -[NSView addToolTipRect:owner:userData:] to add a tooltip rect covering the whole browser view (and update it when its bounds change). Set the owner to an object which implements the NSToolTipOwner informal protocol – i.e. the -view:stringForToolTip:point:userData: method. In that method, you can translate from the point to a row and column and return an appropriate string.
