Did you by any chance manage to call it with sender==null?  This is what 
I've found in various Cocoa tutorials but it crashes in MonoMac 
(NullReferenceException) - not a big deal but I was wondering if it's 
obsolete data on the Internet or MonoMac-specific.

(Unfortunately I haven't had any luck with my issue so far).

Cheers,
