All good. But I was wondering if it is possible to find out if the application has been opened by dragging a document onto it.

Your delegate will get one of these calls:

- (BOOL)application:(NSApplication *)sender openFile:(NSString *)filename;
#if MAC_OS_X_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED >= MAC_OS_X_VERSION_10_3
- (void)application:(NSApplication *)sender openFiles:(NSArray *)filenames;
#endif


I think you get openFiles: if you implement that method, else it falls back to calling openFile: one or more times.

If you don't get any of these calls before - applicationDidFinishLaunching:, you don't have any docs to open.
