try the delegate method:

- (NSRange)textView:(NSTextView *)aTextView
willChangeSelectionFromCharacterRange:(NSRange)oldSelectedCharRange
toCharacterRange:(NSRange)newSelectedCharRange


You will end up with a newSelectedCharRange.location where the cursor
is located, with a newSelectedCharRange.length == 0.
