Can anybody tell me what file keyedobjects.nib located in a nib folder

Please don't cross threads! If you want to start a new thread, please
do so in a new message rather than a reply.
The keyedobjects.nib file contains an archive of all of the objects you
set up in Interface Builder. The AppKit framework loads the file when
your application calls NSBundle's nib loading methods. (The other two
files, classes.nib and info.nib, are only used by IB and aren't touched
by AppKit.) keyedobjects.nib files are created if you saved the nib in
"10.2 only" format, or both formats, because Mac OS X 10.1.5 and
earlier can't read them.
The older OS releases read in the old objects.nib file, which is still
supported through backward compatibility, but it is deprecated and does
not support several new features added to Cocoa in OS X 10.2 and later.
For example, if you want to make an NSTextField with rounded corners in
IB, then you must save the nib in "10.2 only" format because that
attribute won't get saved in objects.nib files.
