I have a window with a bunch of text fields. I also have an "Apply"

If I have edited text in a field but not hit return or tab or
anything else that triggers target/action, the edit is ignored. So I
need a way to commit any such pending edits as part of my response
to the "Apply" button. It's not clear what the right way to do that
is. I know about the Field Editor, but the various methods that
pertain to it seem to be rather low level. I'd sort of expect to see
some sort of "validate and commit pending edits" method at the
window/window controller level that takes care of figuring out which
control is focused, etc. Since there doesn't appear to be one, what
should I use to write one?
You don't mention if you're using bindings. If you are, you should
send one of the -commitEditing... messages to the NSController-derived
mediating controllers. This is part of the NSEditor information
protocol.
