Sorry, didn't read your email properly. If you've already created
a menu in your MainMenu nib and it's not working, perhaps you
haven't actually made the connection in the nib. If that's the
case, then you just need to Control-drag from your Close menu item
to the First Responder in the nib and connect it to the close:
action. If you've already done that and it still doesn't work then
I'm lost.
I was afraid I'd forgotten the step of hooking up the Close menu
item I created to First Responder's close: action, so I went ahead
and tried again. Here is exactly what I did:
1. Created a new menu in MainMenu nib with a single item, Close,
with the key mnemonic ⌘W.
2. Hooked up the menu item to the close: action in First Responder.
When I loaded up the app's About window and hit ⌘W, I got the usual
system beep I described before.
Of course, the issue is that I _still_ may not have something in the
responder chain set up to properly the keyboard event, but I'm not
really sure what to do even if I _could_ respond to the keyboard
event somewhere else (e.g., my delegate); I don't have a reference
to the About window -- I assume it's created programmatically in -
[NSApp orderFrontStandardAboutPanel:], and I can't find a method for
grabbing a reference -- so I'm not sure how I could close it from
some other part of the code anyway.
Aha! I just checked the Close item in my main menu nib's menu (which I
hadn't deleted, so it's still the default one) and Control-clicking
that reveals its (the menu item's) connections and it connects to
performClose: in First Responder, not close:. So try connecting to
that and see how it goes. Sorry for not checking before.
