In the latest edition of his book, Hillegass does mention xibs in
passing. He basically says 'don't worry about the difference between
xibs and nibs'. After that, he just refers to nibs, though, which can
be confusing.

Having installed xcode 3.1.1 last week and starting to go through
Hillegass’s book early on he talks the reader in how to modify the
nib file. But with 3.1.1 it looks like that is now the xib
instead. Anything I need to know for working with these instead of
the nib’s under 3.1.1?
You can just use xib wherever Hillegass refers to nib. Xib is a
plain-text representation of a nib, and is compiled into a nib as
part of the build process. The Xcode tools can still use nibs
directly, but new projects are usually better off using xibs.
