Re: first responder when there is no responder chain

Stefan,

With Leopard and later, you can redirect the action message using -
[NSFontManager setTarget:].
For Tiger, you should be able to receive the action message as 
NSApplication delegate.

You're required to call NSApplicationLoad() before accessing any Cocoa 
objects from Carbon applications.

The function initializes NSApp.
