Hi all,
What's the purpose of the "fax" received action in NSTableView and
is it
documented somewhere at all? Did a quick search
and couldn't find its documentation.
Not sure where you're using this as it's not in my headers for
NSTableView.
I'm guessing Behrang saw it in IB. If I Control-drag from a button to
any view I see fax: among the possible received actions.
I think once upon a time "Fax" was a button on the print dialog. At
least that was true on the NeXT. Now, instead, "Fax PDF..." is an
option under the "PDF" button. I suspect this is an accidental
leftover in IB -- probably worth a bug report. From a quick
experiment, fax: seems to be a no-op, not even generating a log message.

In fact the only place that mentions it at all is NSView:
/* Printing action method (Note fax: is obsolete) */
- (void)print:(id)sender;
So I think there's your answer...
Does anyone fax these days? Seems so.... 1980s.
