You can do this (and a lot of other stuff not covered by NSWorkspace ) with a CarbonEvent handler on kEventClassApplication, kEventAppFrontSwitched.

Hi,
Is there any way to subscribe to frontmost application change notification? For example, via NSDistributedNotificationCenter or some other facility? I have managed to get process startup and shutdown notifications, but I cannot get active application change notification. Maybe it is done in somehow another way?

I ran NotificationWatcher, which logs all distributed notifications and workspace notifications, but didn't see anything when I switched apps. So it must be done a different way. I suspect there may be a CoreGraphics API that does this; try looking there.
