Please, please, please _don't_ write an input manager.  They are a 
gross hack, using mechanisms that (as I understand it) Apple is 
planning on removing from the OS because they are destabilizing and 
unsafe.  We've been plagued by incompatibilities between poorly-
written but widely-deployed input managers and our product, and we're 
far from the only ones.  Search the web a bit for "Logitech Control 
Center", for an example.
