OK, great, thanks. I have now tried to convert some nibs from SndKit and use 
them in GNUstep, but so far no success. GNUstep is certainly picking up the 
right gmodel file and is trying to read it, but evidentally coming up against 
errors or something.

[there's also a bug in gui/NSBundleAdditions.m which for *some* examples 
tries to load a gmodel as a nib (gorm?) and fails - I'll send patch to 
bug-gnustep]

What's the best way to debug this? I have tried knocking out large chunks of 
the gmodel file until I find the bit that seems to be choked on, but there 
does not seem to be any rhyme or reason to what these things are - the lines 
in question appear for other objects above the one that gets choked on, but 
seem to be parsed ok the first time.

Is this an example of the sort of editing that other people have to do to 
converted gmodel files, or is this just buggy behaviour?

(I can provide full examples if anyone wants them, but you'll also need the 
MusicKit and SndKit frameworks, available on CVS)
