The window itself is probably not going to respond to key and mouse 
events. It the custom view that is supposed to accept these events, 
implement them, and then make sure that view can become the 
firstResponder. You might want to set it as the window's 
initialFirstResponder so that it will accept events on startup. If you 
don't know what that means, you should probably read this:
