I need to create the equivalent of a menu item shortcut, but without the
menu item... or, to assign two different shortcuts to the same menu item.
More precisely: I have a menu item with a shortcut of Command+L.
I need Command+Shift+L to do exactly the same thing, but it doesn't look
right having two copies of the menu item just to support a second shortcut.
This needs to work across multiple windows of the application, and there
are enough distinct types that it would be annoying to need to create
and maintain a separate implementation of a solution for each separate
window.
Anyone know how I might be able to pull this off? Neither the
NSApplication nor the NSDocument seem to receive the
"performKeyEquivalent:" method, so not quite sure where to go with this one.
Note that I am doing this because of interfacing with an external
controller which, because of the way I am hoping to rig this to behave
in a reasonable way, will sometimes send the keystroke with and
sometimes without the shift - this is an implementation detail that I
don't expect the user to be aware of (if they happen to hold down shift
while hitting Command+L... I don't particularly care - won't really
matter :-)
Thank you!
