Adrian's solution is good, but better I think to use a switch statement rather than all those string comparisons, e.g.:

    uint const modifierCode = (theEvent.modifierFlags & NSDeviceIndependentModifierFlagsMask);
    BOOL usingModifiers = ( modifierCode != 0 );
    //BOOL const usingShiftKey = ((theEvent.modifierFlags & NSShiftKeyMask) != 0);
    //BOOL const usingCommandKey = ((theEvent.modifierFlags & NSCommandKeyMask) != 0);
    NSString * ch = [theEvent charactersIgnoringModifiers];
    if ( ( usingModifiers ) && ( ch.length == 1 ) ) switch ( [ch characterAtIndex:0] )
    {
        case 'x':
            if ( modifierCode == NSCommandKeyMask ) [m cut]; // <-- m = model
            break;
        case 'c':
            if ( modifierCode == NSCommandKeyMask ) [m copy];
            break;
        case 'v':
            if ( modifierCode == NSCommandKeyMask ) [m paste];
            break;
        case 'z':
            if ( modifierCode == NSCommandKeyMask ) [m undo];
            break;
        case 'Z':
            if ( modifierCode == ( NSCommandKeyMask | NSShiftKeyMask ) ) [m redo];
            break;
        default: // etc.
            break;
    }
    else switch ( theEvent.keyCode ) // <-- for independent keycodes!
    {
        case kVK_Home:
            [m moveToBeginningOfDocument:nil];
            break;
        case kVK_End: // etc!
