"application that modifies itself" Well it wouldn't do that per-say. The application binary and in memory wouldn't be modified at runtime. I wouldn't comprimize that stability for this feature. I just want the ability to modify the presentation layer of the application before it starts up so that it will have a different look and feel but it would still sit on top of the core application but just subscribe to the core program using bindings (basically modifying a nib without compiling the actual program since the nib is just a resource). -Jerrod

should rethink this approach. You can't guarantee that a user will
have write access to an application, among other concerns.
