That sound interesting. however i have no idea where to start to built the system you describe. Have you got any code already written?
Basically how can you set a window to be always first responder? and how can you forward events to the system?

I have not coded this myself, but I remember a thread on this list where the person had a transparent window where events were merely recorded and passed on to whatever was beneath it. I'm fairly sure the low-level event handling APIs were involved, but I don't remember exactly, sorry.

Thank you for your help,

And I'm sorry that I couldn't offer more.

Cheers,
