Make your controller the delegate of NSApplication and handle
applicationDidFinishLaunching:. Alternately, you can set yourself up
as a listener for the NSApplicationDidFinishLaunchingNotification.


The reason your app crashes before NSApplicationMain is because you
need to call at least NSApplicationLoad. But the proper way to do what
you want is from applicationDidFinishLaunching anyway.
