Actually, the NSRunAlertPanel works fine. But it sets things up for the modal window to crash it later. I'd say that it kind of hijacks the main run loop.

Anything that I want to happen before a document opens, in case the app is launched by doubleclicking a document.
SO…
Is it correct to say that one should not do "GUI Things" or "AppKit Stuff" in -applicationWillFinishLaunching: ?
If someone could please state that more concisely I'd like to file some document feedback requesting that this restriction be stated in the documentation of -applicationWillFinishLaunching:.
Thanks,
Jerry
