Re: catching command-enter keyDown events in a table view

While we're on the subject, I'm trying to do exactly the same thing.
I've got my subclass set up, and the keypress events work fine.
However, I'd like the keypress to affect another table (by filling it
with the appropriate data). I'm sure it's a simple process, but I
haven't figured it out. Would someone mind pointing me in the right
direction?

Thanks!
