Well designed, a developer shoudn't want to look into the files 
directly. So, if you have two files for each delegate, each class, even 
when related, it doesn't matter. ProjectCenter should handle it 
transparently. You don't fiddle with .s, .i, .nib, .gorm files 
directly, either.

This is what makes NeXTstep / GNUstep / Cocoa great: Drop most of the 
2057 possible features and go with a small set of sufficient ones. You 
get 99 % done with a 20 % learning curve.


Cheers,
