I'm really having trouble getting a Cocoa Table View cell to send action messages.

At the most basic level, in IB there is an action assigned for the NSTextViewCell object, and after editing and pressing Return nothing happens.

So I have an IBOutlet hooked up to the NSTextViewCell, and have been experimenting with NSActionCell messages to it. But the Table View seems to pretty much just ignore them.

I've also tried subclassing NSTextViewCell, but the methods I'm seeing all look like they want to pass values to the object from somewhere, not return a value from inside the object to configure its behavior.

I'm pretty new to programming and Cocoa -- can someone explain each thing that needs to be overridden and how and where to do it?
