We have no control over if Apple choses to fix our bugs or not. Do we waste time working around a bug, then waste time reporting it?

So is there no way in Cocoa to assign key equivs by key code instead of by string? The Carbon menu
item could be set by glyph (SetMenuItemKeyGlyph) or by key code (SetMenuItemCommandKey), which sure

Such software has already established the precedent that it needs lots and lots

Is there an API (carbon or cocoa) to determine if an item is in the trash?
NSFileManager, NSFileHandle and carbon Files.h do not have anything.
Or do I just do a path search looking for ".trash"?
You definitely do *not* do that. The name and location of the trash directory is an

The thing that bothers me is why macros should be substituting into method
