I guess this question applies to EdenMath and Stepulator as well, but is there any way to receive input from the keyboard in Calculator.app? Otherwise, it's pretty tiresome to mouse around to enter every number and operation.


You'd need to implement/override the keyDown: method, something like this:

- (void) keyDown: (NSEvent*)theEvent
{
  NSString *characters = [theEvent characters];
  unichar  character = 0;

  if ([characters length] > 0)
    {
      character = [characters characterAtIndex: 0];

/* Figure out which character got pushed and tell that button to performClick: ... */
    }
  else
    [super keyDown: theEvent];
}

I'm not sure Calculator is organized correctly for that, though. You generally want to implement the keyDown: method in a view or in the window's delegate. But it might work OK.
