  Why would you believe "insert" means anything but? If you read the 
documentation on the text system, you'll get a better idea of where to 
look for more answers.

  You can ask the text view for its NSTextStorage (which is a 
subclass of NSMutableAttributedString) and replace the contents with -
replaceCharactersInRange:withString: or -
replaceCharactersInRange:withAttributedString:
