I’m trying to write an app where I need to accept keypresses, and call a function whenever the user has stopped typing (or when there is a specified delay between keystrokes).
How do I measure the time between two keystrokes?

Probably a better approach is to pick up the NSEvent associated with each keypress and compare the difference in their -timestamp property.
