Thanks guys, but I don't think that will work. I want to know when
*any* key on the keyboard is pressed - I don't care what the keys
are, I just need the timing. The purpose of this if you're curious
is to have the program make a key click sound when keys are pressed.
OS X has something like this built in, but you can only turn it on
when "slow keys" are enabled under the Universal Access system
preference pane. I want click sounds all the time but without slow
keys.
Any other ideas?
Thanks,
-Ryan

What you want is Hot Keys, you can get this through carbon or there
are at least two wrapper classes including the one on my web site.

I'm trying to write a little Cocoa app which will be able to see
all keyDown events - even when it's not in the foreground. I've
been playing around with first creating a global floating window,
and although I've managed to do this, I only receive keyDown
events when my window is in the front.
