i was reading through the responder chain docs and anything I could find about keyDown events, and to my understanding an application can only detect keyDowns if they happened in one of their of their Windows, Menus or Views. But what if I would like my app to listen to keyDowns that happened while my app was in the background? Is there a way to listen to system-wide keyDown events?

I think you have to go Carbon for this one...

Look at:

InstallApplicationEventHandler
RegisterEventHotKey
