I don't know about tutorials, but it's just as easy to create classes in IB
3. For any object, to create a subclass, or drag an object to the nib, then
go to the "Identity Inspector" (Apple-6) and type in the new class name. Add
your outlets and actions, then choose "Write Class Files..." from the File
menu.
There is some quirkiness about IB 3, and if the nib isn't already associated
with a project, you may run into issues of having to manually add the files.
So far, I have only found this when creating new nibs--i.e. nibs aren't
"automatically" added to a project when you save them into the project
folder, like in IB 2. Irritating, but there is an easy workaround.
