Hi, how can I get the current lline and column of an NSTextView? I only know how to get the total number of lines and glyphs:

[[codeTextView layoutManager] numberOfGlyphs];

And:

unsigned numberOfLines = 0;
unsigned index = 0;
while (index < [[codeTextView string] length])
{
index = NSMaxRange([[codeTextView string] lineRangeForRange:NSMakeRange(index, 0)]);
++numberOfLines;
}

I think the Layout Manager Demo does the sort of thing you're looking for.

No, it doesn't. I'm looking for getting the current line the insertion point is in. This demo only colorizes some glyphs the mouse is on top of.
