I have:

- Mac OS X 10.6.2
- Xcode 3.2.1 (IB 3.2.1)
- A .xib file (let's use foo.xib as its name)

I then used the following to generate a .strings file:

ibtool --generate-strings-file ./foo.strings ./foo.xib

Hey Ricky -

ibtool never modifies the input files without being specifically instructed to.

The problem here is that you're only instructing ibtool to open ./ foo.xib, and then apply the strings from ./foo.strings, but not asking ibtool to do anything with the result. You can specify "--write foo.xib" to see the results you expect.

Hopefully that clears up your problem, good luck -
