The above refers to ST/X but it's pretty close to VW usage. <big snip>

All this talk of Smalltalk and such is fine and dandy, but it helps me not in the least, or anyone else here who is trying to do COCOA. Sorry for being snippety, I do thank you for responding to my question, but if I'm having trouble with something that's is supposed to be easy in Cocoa, pointing me as much more esoteric stuff is not likely to do me much good. If I understand what you guys are hinting at, and all the docs and books, et cetera have to say on the subject--a big IF, given my sorry state of understanding--then the idea of having separate controllers for Model and View, or what might be called MCCV, is a myth. All I can do is use notifications and delegates to the max and whatever still ends up where it should not belong is an "exception that proves the rule?" But I got to ask: if it isn't doable, why is the idea mentioned in so many places?
