This may be a silly way to do it, but it does work:
display dialog "What line?" default answer "1"
set n to text returned of result as integer
tell application "Xcode"
tell text document 1
set s to (get text of it)
set len to length of text from paragraph 1 to paragraph n of s
set selection to insertion point (len + 1)
end tell
end tell
That puts the insertion point at the end of the requested line. m.
