Thanks, Topher. I got this suggestion a little while earlier from Greg
and it worked great. (I am still wondering how to add an executable
(successfully) to a bundle, but that can wait.)
Using LSUIElement, the app closes automatically on command-Q, which is
fine for now. However, your idea of having it close on closing the last
window makes sense. I'll try implementing this:
- (BOOL) applicationShouldTerminateAfterLastWindowClosed:
(NSApplication *) theApplication
Can I stick it in the controller class?

Daniel,
Did you get a good answer for this? Try building a standard Cocoa app
(not
document based) and adding LSUIElement in the Info.plist with a value
of 1.
That will make your application run without a menu bar. Keep in mind,
though, that if you have a close button on the window and you close
it, your
app is still running and has no interface to allow it to quit. Best
to have
it be a window without a close button or have it quit on close.

Subject: creating an app w/o MainMenu.nib
Hi All,
I am trying to create an application that does not have a MainMenu, but
that otherwise behaves like a Cocoa app. I tried deleting the nib file
and got an error, so it seems that inside of NSApplicationMain(argc,
argv) there is a required expectation of loading a MainMenu.nib file.
What alternative am I looking for inside of main.c?
Sorry, this is probably a very basic question. If you could point me to
the right documentation, I'd appreciate it. Thanks.
Daniel
