An even simpler way to cause negative values to be displayed in red
is to include the constant [Red] in your format string, as shown in
this example:
[numberFormatter setFormat:@"$#,##0.00;[Red]($#,##0.00)"];

Can any other colors be used here, or is it just red?
If other colors are allowed, is it a fixed set, or does it
automagically create a color from a NSColor class method with the
correct name
e.g:
[numberFormatter setFormat:@"$#,##0.00;[DarkGray]($#,##0.00)"];
Would use +[NSColor darkGrayColor].
I'd recommend experimenting. If I had to guess, the color names might
be drawn from the "Apple" system color list (go to the Color Picker,
click the third item in the tool bar, and select Apple from the
Palette: pop-up).
