Yes, I screwed up! I was copying icons from one nib file to another, ..and  
BaNG! IB crashed and both nib files disappeared from the corresponding  
directories. Vanished!

All I have left is an old backup (yeah, I should backup more often, I  
know), and the corresponding .nib~ files. For some reason these were not  
destroyed. Thanks IB!?!

Anyhow, has anybody been able to rebuild a .nib file from a .nib~? Is this  
possible or should I just forget about it? It's only a couple of day's  
work, but I thought it would be nice to know, ..in case I decided screw up  
again! You never know..

Thanks.
