I'm new to this mailing list and also new to objective-c/cocoa programming. I've gone through a book I picked up and I wanted to try to make a simple, run in the background application.

Look at the list of Info.plist keys to see how to do a background app.

To get to the point, I was looking through the documentation was looking for some class that would act as a reference to an external monitor or whatever is plugged into a laptops DVI port. My search came up empty, but I was hoping you guys could point me in the right direction. Thanks


Depends on what you really want to do. Since you didn't say, I can only provide vague clues and hints: There is NSScreen and CGDirectDisplay &co. If you want lower-level info, you'll be going a lot lower level and looking at IOKit.
