In my code, I have created a preferences class. This has methods for getting and setting and each preference. For example :
+ (NSColor *)tableColor;
+ (void)setTableColor:(NSColor *)color;
There are also methods for adding and removing observers :
+ (void)addObserver:(id)anObserver;
+ (void)removeObserver:(id)anObserver;
Observers get notified when a preference changes and make use of the NSNotificationCenter as described in Aaron's book.
Within the class implementation I use the + (void)initialize method to set the preference defaults.
All application areas including the preference pane window, get and set preferences through the preferences class.
