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.

Grab them in a subclass of NSApplication. -[NSApplication sendEvent:] gets to look at everything before it gets handed off to windows and views. _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
