I remember once hearing about a lecture where at the end the speaker said:
"Oh, I'm terribly sorry, everywhere I said Alcibiades, I meant St Paul." Is
it like that with this note? Everywhere you say NSTextView, do you mean
NSTextField?

If so, try setting the window's first responder to nil first thing in the
button's action method. m.
