nil-targeted actions. In MainMenu.nib, make a connection from your menu item to the nib's FirstResponder. (You will see a number of items that are already set up like this). Then read about the responder chain to see how it is determined which object's implementation of that method gets invoked (hint, one such place is the key document window, which is just what you described below). As an example, one of the existing menu/action pairs is print: -- you could simply implement this in your NSDocument subclass and it would work as you'd expect.

Hello:

I'm sure this is dead easy, but it's not very obvious to me. I have a document-based app and I want certain menu items to (MainMenu.nib) to send actions to the front document (and likewise be disabled when there is no document to send actions to). So, what am I missing?

Thanks,
Chaz McGarvey
