Alas, it doesn't seem to work on Mac OSX. It reports 0 no matter where the text is scrolled.

What I need, more exactly, is two things:

1. I need to retrieve the text for the whole line in which the user has double-clicked.

2. I need to be able to position the insertion at a particular line, as measured within the whole (not just visible) text.

Maybe there's some combination of inherited methods that would do this? I don't seem to be up to finding it, though. If anybody happens to know, great.
