I was just wondering if I could generate NiB file automatically? I'm trying to find out, for a customer, but also for myself (it seems like fun) if I could write a program that converts window definitions (for example Visual Basic forms, Powerbuilder window objects, ....) into NiB files so they can easily be modified by other programmers later using IB.

I suppose this is possible since IB was written too. My question.... Are there any docs on how this is done?

No NIB docs that I know of. You'd probably have a much easier time generating Renaissance files, since that's a documented, XML-based format:


<http://www.gnustep.it/Renaissance/>

Added bonus - Renaissance interfaces also work with GNUStep, whereas NIBs don't.
