Ihar, no offense, but I think a lot of your problems are coming from
lack of understanding of how Cocoa works and the whole system of
Cocoa development.
Yea, maybe it's a pain in the butt and totally unnecessary, but
wouldn't starting from scratch, programmatically creating all of the
various things needed for something simple give you a possibly *MUCH*
better view of what's going on under the hood?
Perhaps, but don't forget the fundamental design goal of Cocoa: to
minimize the amount of code that needs to be written. IB isn't just a
convenient way to do what you would otherwise have to code by hand.
It's an integral part of Cocoa's approach.
Ideally, you wouldn't write any code at all; you'd just hook stuff up
in IB. You can kind of see bindings leading in that direction.
If you're writing a GUI app and are trying to bypass IB to do it,
you're sort of missing the whole point of Cocoa.
