Stealing keystrokes

Subject: Stealing keystrokes
From: Paul FitzGerald <email@hidden>

I want to steal or filter key events before they get to any of the UI in my window. Currently I have a dummy custom subview of NSView in the window that I make first responder that overrides keyDown: and keyUp:. I don't really like this implementation and I really only want to get the keys, not the other events.

I was thinking it would be best if I could get the key events at the NSWindow before they are sent to the first responder but I can't figure out if that can be done. I only want to filter key events going to this window so this would make sense.

Anyone have an idea how I could do this?
Any other ideas?

Thanks,
Paul
