Sounds like a cool project! The I beam is called the "insertion point" in NSTextView. You can get the character index of it using [self selectedRange] inside NSTextView. The I-beam is only present if length == 0 and location != NSNotFound. To get the (x,y) coordinates for positioning the popup window, you can use -firstRectForCharacterRange:. (NSTextInput protocol). Note that apple's docs say this returns a result in screen coordinates, but our NSTextView's implementation doesn't seem to do that.
