  No, nobody's discovered how this works yet. It's a deep,
impenetrable mystery, a black art the depths of which not even Apple
fully grasps. Of course I'm kidding. :-)

  The Cocoa Fundamentals guide is your best friend:

http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/CocoaFundamentals/CommunicatingWithObjects/chapter_6_section_5.html#

  There's also this (see the very last paragraph):

http://developer.apple.com/DOCUMENTATION/Cocoa/Conceptual/EventOverview/EventArchitecture/chapter_2_section_6.html#

  Google will also help (try googling "cocoa first responder").

  You may not like the bluntness of this, but it's meant to be helpful
*and* realistic: You're trying to run before you can walk. Your best
bet is to take a detour from the advanced technologies (Core Data,
Cocoa Bindings, etc.) and make sure you've mastered the basics (or at
least the organization of the documentation). What you're looking for
is critical to your understanding of many aspects of Cocoa. If you
don't have that down yet, you're in for a world of hurt trying to
understand the more complicated parts.
