I need to select individual cells within NSTableView. If that goes
well, I would like to select a sequence of cells either in a row or in
a column. This would be no different then what you see in spreadsheet
applications and the way the cell cursor is implemented.

Well, what is "select"? As far as I can tell, it means to remember that one
particular cell is special and mark it specially in some way. So what I do
is implement tableView:willDisplayCell:forTableColumn: and mark the special
cell specially in some way. The table's action method takes care of
clicking and its keyDown event takes care of arrow keys, so the user can
set what cell is special. m.
