I have an NSTableView in my user interface, where new rows are added when the user presses a button or keyboard shortcut. Each row consists of two text cells (the table is comprised of two columns). Is there a way to immediately select the first text cell of a new row which is added?

So, basically, I would like the user to be able to press the button, adding a new row to the table and then having it editable straight away.
