I have an iTunes-like app and would like to use the spacebar for start/stop

the space bar to act normally.


How can I achieve this?

Also, is there anyway to put [space] in the menu item command key - without
the command modifier?

In order:

Best solution I know of is to subclass NSApplication and catch it in - [NSApplication sendEvent:].

Add " space" to the title of the menu item. There is, in fact, no other way to display it - this is what iTunes does as well.
