This can be done in IB quite easily. Select the NSTextField and press the
command-1 or select Tools->Show Info. Make sure that "Attributes" is
selected in the popup at the top of the window. Select the dotted Text
Boarder and then de-select the draw checkbox under Background Color.

A simpler way is to drag in one of the labels from the lower right of the
Cocoa-Text palette. These are also NSTextField's already configured the way
you want.
