this lets you install a handler to get "first crack" at any keyboard
event before the normal event processing occurs.

Hi,
I guess your application should have a (global) menu bar even when
there are no open windows. Command-N is then just a short cut for
the corresponding menu entry. You can simulate the global menu bar
without having a window by creating an off-display window. The menu
of this off-site window can then be used when no application/
document windows are open.

Hi. I've got a Swing document viewer app that may or may not have
open windows (documents). I'd like to bind Command-N to pop up a new
query window (to seach for new documents) and have it work even if
there are no open windows. Generating a ReOpenApplication event
would
be fine. But I don't see how to bind key actions without a Window to
bind them to. I'm hoping I don't have to mess around trying to give
focus to an invisible window when there are no other open windows.
