Is there a way to know if a modifier key (shift, ctrl, option, cmd,
etc) is pressed?  Obviously, there's this:
NSUInteger modifierFlags = [theEvent modifierFlags];

but what if you need to know this information independent of an
NSEvent?  Anyway to get it?

You don't get it independently of NSEvent, you get a specific event whenever the current set of modifiers changes, an event of type NSFlagsChanged.


Given that you are informed with an event each time the modifiers change, I'm not sure why you want to "know this information independent of an NSEvent".
