We're making an application that stores several user "tasks".

One of each task's attributes is a user-editable script; a
scrollable view
of text which may be 5-100 lines. This view should:
- scroll vertically when needed.
- accept "return" and "tab" characters without using "opt" key.
- give me a notification or delegate message upon completion of
each "edit":
(contiguous typing, cut operation, paste operation, etc.), like the
editor
in Xcode. Upon receiving this, I shall end an undo grouping and
(unlike
Xcode) silently save their work.
Sounds like you want to use NSTextView, but NSTextView automatically
handles undo; you don't have to manage it. You can get notification
of various changes as the text view's delegate, and choose when to
save the document.
