Assuming you just need to do some sort of special processing at 
mouseUp time (which doesn't otherwise alter the behavior implicit in 
the mouseDown code), you could just do this:

- (void) mouseDown: (NSEvent *) theEvent
{
   [super mouseDown: theEvent];
   // insert custom code that you want to happen after mouse up here
}
