Thanks, but it doesn't help me much with learning ObjC, which was kind of my goal there.


Neither will re-inventing what IB does and creating a program that follows a nonstandard and unsupported pattern....

If you want to learn Objective-C, write a command line tool or write a Cocoa application that actually does something.

Cocoa gives you Hello World and about a zillion other standard application behaviors/features for free. It is your job to fill in and customize the bits that make your program unique to your needs.
