You want to subclass NSWindow and override -sendEvent:, which will let
you get at the keyboard events before the rest of the standard event
handling stuff gets at it. You will use your subclass of NSWindow for
your windows.
Alternately you could subclass NSApp and override -sendEvent: there. I
did something similar by subclassing NSWindow, but you may find that
you need to hijack the event earlier in the process (e.g. at NSApp).
Try both ways.
See http://developer.apple.com/DOCUMENTATION/Cocoa/Conceptual/EventOverview/Introduction/chapter_1_section_1.html
for details, specifically the section on Event Dispatch.

Hi All,
I am working on a project which is an Agent and just has a couple on
Windows
and a menu bar icon. The menu bar icon has a menu which is used to
call up
the two windows. Now I want to add 'Command-V' so that I can paste
into the
NSTextFields in this window, as I don't have the standard Edit menu
I need
to catch this command in some other way. I did first try to add a
menu item
for pasting in the menu bar menu and hooking it into the First
responder
paste selector but that didn't work. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance
Andy
