Editing the HUD window text edit question

So I am poking in the HUD window from
http://mattgemmell.com/2006/03/12/hudwindow

And I get as far as getting it to let me select text and rightclick to
copy and paste text to change it's contents but I can not get it to
just let me select the text like a normal text editing program and
type in normal content.

Note how do I use the options that do not have (void)'s and have the
BOOL on the left of the method like so
	//[textField YES:allowsEditingTextAttributes];
Since
– setSelectable:
– isSelectable
look the same but only setSelectable works

My code block

// Create a HUDWindow.
   // Note: the styleMask is ignored; NSBorderlessWindowMask is always used.
   window = [[HUDWindow alloc] initWithContentRect:windowFrame
                                         styleMask:NSBorderlessWindowMask
                                           backing:NSBackingStoreBuffered
                                             defer:NO];

   // Add some text to the window.
   float textHeight = 300.0;
   NSTextField *textField = [[NSTextField alloc]
initWithFrame:NSMakeRect(0.0, (windowSize.height / 2.0) - (textHeight
/ 2.0),

windowSize.width, textHeight)];
   [[window contentView] addSubview:textField];
	[textField setAllowsEditingTextAttributes:YES];
	//[textField YES:allowsEditingTextAttributes];
	//[textField YES:isSelectable];
	//[textField YES:isEditable];
   [textField setEditable:YES];
	[textField setSelectable:YES];
   [textField setTextColor:[NSColor whiteColor]];
   [textField setDrawsBackground:NO];
   [textField setBordered:NO];
   [textField setAlignment:NSCenterTextAlignment];
   [textField setStringValue:@" icfsf Some sample text"];
   [textField release];
