Silly NSTextFieldCell tricks

Subject: Silly NSTextFieldCell tricks

I've noticed that in table views, the NSTextFieldCell has the ability to ever-so-slightly squash its contents horizontally, to fit inside the table cell, before eventually giving up and truncating them with ellipses.

Is there any way for me to programmatically do the same thing to my own NSTextFieldCell?

As I'm typing this, suddenly I'm thinking "maybe I could fake it by altering the cell's bounds while leaving the frame alone"… but is there a better way? Changing the bounds would make the text thinner, which isn't quite the same as squeezing the letters more tightly together.
