The next question is about actually terminating. I currently simply call [NSApp terminate:] which works, but I'm a bit worried that there could be a way that this won't actually Quit, since it's only a request to Quit, not a command. For example if the user launched the app by double-clicking a file that needs some conversion as it's read in, the document gets marked as dirty, and that allows a way for the user to cancel the Quit. Is there a way to legally Quit an app, no questions asked?


You can do something like the following in - applicationDidFinishLaunching:

if([alert runModal] == NSAlertFirstButtonReturn)
{
	exit(0);
}
else
{
	[NSApp applicationOpenUntitledFile:NSApp];
}

A straight exit() may not be elegant but it certainly works just fine.
