Re: Two mnemonics in Cocoa

Hey Chad,

You should look at NSResponders keyUp: method.  You can look at the Event
object and from that determine what key is down and which modifiers (cmd,
opt, cntrl).  As for doing something like zoom in and zoom out.  Even
Photoshop will implement them as two different methods.  You just need to
check which key was pressed and call the correct method.

Hope this helps,
