Hi,

I'm trying to write a kernel extension that remaps certain keys for a certain application. (Specifically, I want to switch Command and Option

in Terminal.app. The system preferences let you do this, but only for all applications.) I haven't written kernel extensions before. I've got one working that can remap keys for all applications. I did this by putting new functions in the _keyboardEventAction fields in the IOHIKeyboard objects. The new function changes the arguments before passing them through to the original _keyboardEventAction.

Now, the missing piece... how can I find out which application is in the foreground?

thanks,

Rob
