IB's class browser initially shows common classes and public
AppKit classes.  SoundView is part of SoundKit.

Click on View.  Select Subclass from the Operations pulldown
menu, then type SoundView and press Return.

If you double-click on the .h icon IB will message Edit to open
the interface file--and it *will* find it.  You can also use
CustomView to instantiate SoundViews.

Note that IB won't have parsed the interface definition, so you
won't be able to connect directly to the "reduction" or "sound"
ids.

If this disturbs you, there are two workarounds:

	(1) Attempt Save As... to /usr/include/soundkit/UNTITLED
	    [This SHOULD fail for lack of permissions!]
	  -or-
	(2) Create a symlink from /usr/include/soundkit/SoundView.h
	    into your project directory (or home directory if you
	    haven't created a project directory yet).

	THEN Parse will work.  (If you used (2), you can remove the
	symlink now.)

Or, drag the file from /usr/include/soundkit/SoundView.h and drop it
in the Classes suitcase or window (whichever is easiest).  Or, just
add the outlets manually in IB (just make certain the spelling is
correct).  Parsing and Unparsing in IB is simply a convenience
function that allows the user to easily update either IB or the .[hm]
file so that both have the same ideas about what exactly the class
looks like.  If you don't want to use that convenience - don't!  There
are many cases where IB doesn't do so well (Unparsing over top of
existant sources, or Parsing when you have instance variables like
Button *, or Parsing when you have Categories in the .h file), and
manually is the way to go ...
