Nothing wrong with that at all.
Maybe I didn't clarify this well. By NSLog's, I see that the "Initializing"
message gets sent, then later I see that the "Ready" message is sent. The
problem is that once the app is up and really ready for the user's first
mouse-click, keystroke, etc., the NSTextField still says "Initializing". If
I hide the app and then restore it, which forces a redraw on all windows,
the NSTextField now says "Ready".
I would have expected the "Ready" message to be there already since it was
sent second. But it does not show up until something forces a redraw on that
window.
Thanks.
