particular messages, are they publicly documented
anywhere? This one was a real nugget. Maybe you have to be a paid up member
of the Developer Program to see these things ;-)

Personaly I don't...I use the Developer app 'Sampler.app' to see what was the PreferencesPane doing : it post notification (in fact this is Ben Woodward who find it, he worked with me on RandomBackground to fix the App to 10.1, and I didn't have the 10.1). Then I used a App I did to scan all the notifications posted. You could only see the name of it : it was "com.apple.desktop". Then I open the bundle and get the compiled stuff. I open it as text, and find some string that the notification object could be. After some try and some research I found it was the "BackgroundChanged" string.
I don't know how Jonathan did, but it should be the same way as mine.

Pierre
