What's the right way to make the last (or only) table column fill the width of an NSTableView?

I'm working on the examples in the (fantastic) Hillegass book.

The ZIP Inspector program works as advertised, but I'm annoyed by the fact that the filenames shown in the Table View get truncated due to the width of their column, which does not resize no matter how big I make the Table View. (The Table View resizes with the window, and I've set the column's Max Width to 10000.)

In case it matters, I'm running on Snow Leopard.

I'm surprised that when a Table View contains only one column, Apple didn't design it to automatically fill the view. I have messed with the table's autoresize settings in every way I can think of, but despite what the NSTableViewColumnAutoresizingStyle <http://developer.apple.com/mac/library/documentation/Cocoa/Reference/ApplicationKit/Classes/NSTableView_Class/Reference/Reference.html#//apple_ref/doc/c_ref/NSTableViewColumnAutoresizingStyle> settings' descriptions say, NONE of them changes the width of the column automatically.

I have come up with a solution involving KVO, but it was so difficult that I feel it must not be correct.

Anyone know of a combination of IB settings that will really, truly make the last (or only) table column really, truly expand to fit the width of the table view?
