ibtool -generate-strings-file MainWindow.nib MainWindow.xib

Will invoke ibtool, and tell it to open MainWindow.xib and then read all the localizable strings out of that XIB, and then write them into the argument of the "-generate-strings-file" argument. So after running that command, ibtool will produce the file MainWindow.nib, and it will contain a bunch of strings. It won't be a NIB. You should probably write that invocation like this to make it more clear:

ibtool MainWindow.xib -generate-strings-file MainWindow.strings

Good Luck -

I am trying to use genstrings:
genstrings AppDelegate.m Appdel.strings
from the terminal window and I get no errors and no output.

Likewise when I do
ibtoo -generate-strings-file MainWindow.nib MainWindow.xib
I get no error and no output.

I am in the terminal in the correct directory so I have no idea what I'm doing wrong
