Hi,

TIA for any help.

I'm playing with Cocoa, using the Vermont recipes book. I'm trying to create
an additional .nib file to hold an extra window. Perhaps i'm
misunderstanding, but it appears to me that the VR instructions are a little
out of sync with Xcode. The instructions it's giving me don't line up with
what i see. It suggests i use the "Empty Cocoa" template after choosing
File->New, but i don't see that template in the list that pops up.

Can someone tell me how to create a new empty .nib file within an existing
document.

TIAAgain,
radar

Create it in Interface Builder (make sure you choose a Cocoa nib, not a
Carbon nib; "Empty" is one of the choices), save it to your project's
English.lproj directory, and add it to your project's Resources group in
Xcode.
