There is no standard shortcut for maximizing. (How would the application
know which window to maximize...). One has to click the window in the dock
to tell the app which window to maximize. You dont have to code that....

You cannot really close an application- you can just close windows. If you
have all windows closed (maybe what you mean is, you have your main app
window closed), the standard way is the Cmd-N command ("New..." In the File
menu). This will create a new document in a document based application
(instantiates a new object of your NSDocument subclass). You can define what
to do if your app is not document based (just catch the action-message).

You might want to read the Apple Human Interface Guidlines to find Apple4s
suggested (standard) ways of doing things on Mac OS X:
