[TxMt Plugins] sendAction Question

[Rob Rix]

Yes, you are doing something wrong.

I don't know if -sendAction:to:from: is the best way to accomplish  
your goal here, but you definitely don't want to be doing  
sel_registerName here. Instead you want @selector as follows:

[[NSApplication sharedApplication] sendAction: @selector(moveLeft:)  
to: nil from: self];

Notice the colon after moveLeft. Action methods always take a  
'sender' argument, which is what you're supplying in the 'from:' part  
of sendAction:to:from:. See file:///Developer/ADC%20Reference% 
20Library/documentation/Cocoa/Reference/ApplicationKit/Classes/ 
NSresponder_Class/index.html for more information.
