Hello.
I want to show a custom menu when the left click its being press for about 1 
second on some of my components.. I have being searching and found a apple 
example where the use the 
+ 
(void)startPeriodicEventsAfterDelay:(NSTimeInterval)delaySecondswithPeriod:(NSTimeInterval)periodSeconds

and the stopPeriodicEvents class methods.  I tried implementing something like:

        BOOL timerOn = YES;
        NSPoint mouseLoc;
        NSLog(@"before loop");
        NSUInteger eventMask =  NSLeftMouseDownMask| NSLeftMouseUpMask | 
NSPeriodicMask;
        while ((theEvent = [[self window] nextEventMatchingMask:eventMask])) {
                NSLog(@"onLoop");
                switch ([theEvent type]) {
                        case NSLeftMouseUp:
                                NSLog(@"up");
                                timerOn = NO;
                                [NSEvent stopPeriodicEvents];
                                break;
                        case NSLeftMouseDown:
                                NSLog(@"down");
                                [NSEvent startPeriodicEventsAfterDelay:0.1 
withPeriod:0.1];
                                break;

                        default:
                                break;
                }
        }

But of course its completely wrong, it never go out from the loop... I tried a 
different approach usign a NSTimer, but found myself going nowhere also... 

Can somebody give me some advice, or where can I find info?, i have been 
looking around but hadn't found something... I know this should have been asked 
already, so there must  be a way to do this.

Thanks in advance .. and happy new year.

Gustavo
