With the help of a lot of folks on this and the Project Builder lists I
have finally made some serious progress, prototyping my application in
four parts. As parts everything seems to work fine. So it is now time
to try and meld these parts into one, before I start replacing the test
code with the real deal, but there is still something I don't quite
understand concerning the document-based template and how to expand it.

Another question: what if I did use NSDocument instead of NSObject for
the last two controllers--would there be any down-side if NSObject
would do the job? Any and all help and/or advice eagerly awaited.
Thanks in advance.
Brian, a couple of comments: first, NSDocument and your subclasses of it
seem to me to belong to the "model" part of the MVC architecture. When
deciding what my "controller" is going to be I have usually chosen
between NSObject (for simple stuff, or stuff not based on a
document-centric model) and NSWindowController (for controllers in a
document-ish context).
That said, your overall schema testifies to the hard work you have done
to absorb the Cocoa paradigms, and it sounds pretty good to me. You've
vented a lot of frustrations here and on other lists, but it seems as if
you have really made some headway. Party on!
