Under OPENSTEP, there were some methods in the InterfaceBuilder framework which
Probject Builder might call to get information about settings within
InterfaceBuilder.   There were also methods which, I suppose, PB would
implement so that IB could call them to notify PB of a change (a new interface
file, etc...)

There was a little more than that.

None taken.  If we can find a way to make them work together in a reasonable
way which keeps one from being dependent on the other, that's fine. ;)
