There's a reasonable tutorial in the Hilegass' book (the one everyone
is always recommending)

Where can I find a description of how to program InterfaceBuilder
palettes?
The Help-menu in IB does describe how to use it, however I could
not find info on the API for IB palettes.
A URL from which to download PDF would be most helpfull, HTML is
less useful because I am working from a dialin connection.
There really is no good documentation on the API. There's some
HTML from Sun on the topic, but no good high-level documents on how
to put everything together.
Having said that, the best approach to use (what I did), is learn
by example. Check out the following:
/Developer/Examples/InterfaceBuilder/
/Developer/Examples/AppKit/ClockControlPalette/
Now then, there are some tasks that I've personally found very
difficult to do, but I and others have been able to figure them all
out. So, start with those examples and if you need specific help,
definitely ask here.
For my palettes, I've done (and thus have experience in) the
following:
* container views (allows any view to be dragged into it)
* control subclasses
* matrix subclasses
* cell subclasses
* custom formatters
* custom inspectors
* WYSIWYG editing; my palette loads all images in the currently
open Xcode project.
* custom bindings
* accessibility
