There are technotes on returning a custom field editor which you can

Except this is an NSTextFIELD, not -View (well, actually, NSComboBox,

a -keyDown: or -insertText: in your subclass, then provide that text
view as the field editor for the combo box. That should solve it.
I'm still really confused as to why everyone is recommending
subclassing the first responder
Which, as I noted, DOESN'T WORK ANYWAY!!! (Go ahead, try it; I'll
wait......See?)
instead of catching the event as it
enters the window. To accomplish your goal, you need to change the
event dispatching logic, which is not a property of the first
responder, but the mechanism that gets the event to it.
Just for the record, that is now what I'm doing; I had subclassed
NSWindow anyway, so it was trivial to add the sendEvent: override in
there as well. And, it works perfectly; much better than my hack.
