Low level mac os libraries

Hi, I would like to ask you about low level sys libraries on mac os x. I want to write game with opengl, and I was wandering if there are low level libs for event handling. I dont want to use NSView mouseDown, keyDown or nsapp etc. Is cocoa the lowest "legal " level?

Basically, yes, Cocoa is the lowest supported API for that sort of thing. There are some wrapper libraries (e.g. SDL, Qt, WxWidgets) which provide a different API, but they are ultimately built on Cocoa on the Mac.
