   Could someone explain how to use RCS and GNU diff to perform revision  
   control on nibs. I once saw it mentioned somewhere, but I can't find it  
   documented anywhere.

For NeXTSTEP < 3.0, get the latest version of RCS and GNU diff which
can handle binary files.   Then you can handle the binary files.

For NeXTSTEP >= 3.0, it's a mess since the nibs have become directoires.
Probably best to switch to CVS, but that is not without problems.
