Hi,
Richard, I also reply to your msg here to avoid too much redundancy.
Thanks for your efforts.
My project is based on what I believe is an official sample from Apple,

Bindings exist to support the use of NIB-based UI behavior. All bindings work
the same way, in the sense that they tie together the value
Thanks for your detailed comments!
Something I’ve realised through this is that you need to be really careful
about upgrading your system on a development machine. Going from 10.12 to 10.13
- and finding that pasteboard functions compile just fine but no longer work -
is almost as big a jump as

and used all over the OS. I use them all the time in my code too. They are
very useful. Bindings are built onto of KVO, which is a fundamental technology.

So, let me respond jointly to all of the comments similar to this.
