Does anyone know how to alter Cocoa Text's word breaking rules? I have found that under tiger, double clicking on hello:word selects both words. In my code editor, this isn't appropriate. Interestingly, this changed between Panther and Tiger.

This can be controlled at the NSTextView level, by subclassing and overriding -selectionRangeForProposedRange:granularity:, or at the NSTextStorage level, by subclassing and overriding doubleClickAtIndex:. The default rules are based on standard Unicode algorithms, which may not be appropriate for contexts other than natural-language text.
