NSTextField Selection

I have an NSTextField whose width is just enough for M and W.  The filled can get set with text longer than one character. The user is to replace this multi-character text with a single character.

So, without having to double click to select all text before entering the single character replacement what is the best way to programmatically select the text?

Do I subclass NSTextField , define a tracking rect and look for mouse entered and then -selectText?  Seems extreme. Is there an easy way?
