Hmmm. The letting it create the files in the nib file sounds fine for
me. But what about the linking and configuring? It's just all
reflected in code correct? The dragging a pipe to one object to the
other that just all shows up in the .m right?

No and no. Distinctly unlike C# applications you build in Visual Studio, creating the UI in Interface Builder does not just write code for you. It creates what amount to full-constructed objects and then freeze-dries them in a container from which they can be easily retrieved. You *can* supplant that pre-rolled functionality in code, and there are sometimes even reasons to do so. But that's not the general circumstance by a long shot.
