So this should remove the zoom button from a window:

I did this once, and as far as I can remember, my app crashed unless
I retained those buttons before removing them from their superview.
Thus, I came to the conclusion that the NSWindow still wanted to
"talk" to its standard buttons from time to time, and that it was
very unhappy if someone had released them (via removeFromSuperview).
Can anyone confirm?
(Unfortunately, I don't have access to that piece of code right now,
so there's a certain possibility that my code had other flaws which
caused the crash.)
You're both right! Andreas' method indeed knocks the zoom /
miniaturise (/ close if you wanted it off) buttons off the title bar,
and as Peter says you need to retain the buttons else the app crashes
when the window is drawn to screen. Bearing in mind it's a global
panel for the app, this I can live with (releasing in app delegate on
quit).
More annoyingly for me is that although the method removes the 2
buttons that I don't want in the title bar, the title string is still
drawn semi off the window, i.e. it's position is no different to when
there are all 3 buttons, there's just a centimetre gap between the
close button and the title.

Oh well it was worth a try! Thanks for all the help anyway!
You can draw the title yourself...
{
id superview = [[window standardWindowButton:NSWindowZoomButton]
superview];
[superview addSubview:aTextField];
}
Not sure if you'll need to pass events up to the superview or not but
with something like this you could even draw an attributed title if you
wanted.
