Hello
I need to intercept a scroll lock key event (that can be found on most of
PC keyboards).
It seems that AppKit framework does not pass any NSEvent's to the
application when this button is pressed.
Neither works addGlobalMonitorForEventsMatchingMask (access for assistive
devices is enabled). I tried the mask NSFlagsChangedMask|NSKeyPressedMask -
the block gets invoked when any button is pressed, except the scroll lock.
Is it possible at all to get a notification in my app when scroll lock is
pressed? Using IOKit maybe?
I need to monitor this event system-wide (i.e, not only when my application
window is the key window).
Thank you.
