I added an NSControlTextDidChangeNotification for a text field and I was wondering if there is a way to see what key was pressed when the selector is called?
Nope — this notification is higher level and happens after any user- driven change; it's not directly related to a particular input event. Text can be changed without keystrokes. For example, the user might have used drag-and-drop to insert or move text in the field, without any keystroke at all. Or they might have used mouse clicks in an input- method panel to create a CJK character.
What precisely are you trying to do? If you really need to look at every keystroke, you'll probably have to override keyDown:, but this is tricky to do because the view you have to override it in is the window's field editor, not the control itself.
