Is there an easy way for me to set a limit on the amount of characters my NSTextField can have? I don't want to have a counter then warn the user if it's over the limit, I want to set the limit so if it's past x characters that's it, they can't type anymore.

Check out NSFormatter. It can help you do what you're looking for and a lot more. If you don't need something that complicated, you might try the NSTextField delegate methods.
