Gregory, that is great work! Especially NIB writing.

And I know how much effort you put in since I am doing the same with
the mySTEP branch for embedded devices (e.g.
http://www.quantum-step.com/download/sources/ -> the B108 release).
What I have achieved is keyed decoding of (most) GUI classes (no
encoding) - and it mostly is the same as your solution. Sometimes there
are (small?) differences for further study.

Some very recent GUI classes are still missing in GNUstep but already
have some implementation in mySTEP: NSLevelIndicator(+Cell),
NSBitmapImageRep for the .icns format, NSTokenField(+Cell),
NSSegmentedControl(+Cell).

So, let's exchange ideas and code (mySTEP changes are already assigned
to FSF).
