At Application launch I need to check to see if the option key was

unable to find anything in the Docs as to how to get the state of a key
or what messages to listen for. I am hoping I don't have to go to
Carbon to do this.
I'm afraid your hope is in vain. :-( Try this:
BOOL optKeyDown = ((GetCurrentKeyModifiers() & (optionKey |
rightOptionKey)) != 0) ? YES : NO;
Of course, you'll have to #import <Carbon/Carbon.h> or something more
specific.
I was disappointed myself on this very topic.
