This is a great example of how to use IB to do the dirty work while still allowing you to make interfaces programmatically. In fact we've added features to IB that make this easier than ever (such as toplevel NSViews objects).

That said, I'm going to take the next "UI without IB" question personally. <snicker>

Scott,
IB Team.

Well, yes and not: one application I am working on recently gets a property
list which describes the UI, and the UI has to be generated programmatically.
Still it is best to place some templates into NIBs and load them on demand,
but a considerable number of things just need to be done programmatically.

Which only emphasizes how properly was OpenStep designed, of course, since
even it is easy and straighforward.
