Thanks!

You know, I skimmed through that document but didn't see that section. The Apple docs are sometimes really frustrating to use. A good concept index would help tremendously.

Found it - but what's the difference between windowDidBecomeKey and windowDidBecomeMain? They both seem to get called when a window comes to the front.

The short version:

"The main window is the standard window where the user is currently working. The main window is not always the key window. There are times when a window other than the main window takes the focus of the input device, while the main window still remains the focus of the user’s attention and of user actions carried out in panels and menus. For example, when a person is using an inspector, a Find dialog, or the Fonts or Colors windows, the document is the main window and the other window is the key window."

The long version:
