My first reaction was: "Elegantly put!" But then I thought, isn't *not* generating this kind of code one of the reasons we tell people nibs are good? Wouldn't a .m be a good place to "document" targets and actions as well? And delegates and other outlets? Or do you think there's something about bindings that makes them subtle enough that for *them*, in some cases, it might make sense to "document" them by coding them? --Andy _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
