Hi David,

I am new to mac and i really don't have much more idea about the mac API's.
Can i have any API/function which could figure out that paste (ctrl+v in windows) option has been done.
Currently we are checking for each character which has been entered in the edit box and using strchr() api filtering it out.
If i could get that (ctrl+v) has been pressed then i can handle the scenario...
In windows i know that we have clipboard api's using which we can handle these kind of scenarios...
Is there something similar to Clipboard in mac????

Regards,
Dverma

OK, that's a better requirement.

And what happens if you use Edit > Special Characters, and then insert a special character? (Actually that may also be kEventTextInputUnicodeForKeyEvent and you're handling it.)

I think you want to handle kEventClassTextField / kEventTextShouldChangeInRange.
