Add an application delegate that responds to the message ...
In a default and very simple application, from project builder do this,
for example:
go to Resources > MainMenu.nib
double click to launch InterfaceBuilder.
Click once on the File's Owner icon to focus on it.
Type Command-2. See the row named "delegate" in the Outlets column?
You will have to hook that to a delegate object.
Do that by instantiating a custom class in your nib.
Then control-drag from the File's Owner icon to your custom class
(delegate class) instance icon (in the same MainMenu.nib window) and
assign it as the delegate by double clicking the "delegate" item in the
inspector.
You just made a hook to the delegate, so now delegate messages get
forwarded to it.
Now, in that delegate class add code for the delegate method.
... many variations after that.
I don't like delegates, I like to subclass NSApplication, but I just
don't know better :-)
