assistive devices... some coregraphics api IIRC
but that's quite an overhead for the simple task of checking a key.

Therefore for me it was GetKeys() [no not ideal but the only way guaranteed to work :)]

With best regards,

How can I test for a key down at launch time with Cocoa? The old event manager has functions like GetKeys() etc that lets you check if a key is down at any given time. I need something that can do this so I can check for a key down when my app launch. What I want to do is show a prefs dialog if a key is held down during launch before any other windows and stuff are set up.

I have not found anything that can do it. Is there a way to do this?

Thanks,
Ken
