I still don't quite understand what those "typing attributes" are all
about and what they add to ordinary attributes

Basically they are attributes that are associated with the caret (a zero length selection) and not any characters in the text storage. For instance, if the user chooses a bold font and has only a caret then no characters in the NSTextStorage should be modified. Instead the NSTextView tracks the change in the typing attributes. Then when the user does some actual typing these typing attributes are applied to the newly inserted characters.

For more see the second paragraph on this page:
