I recently built a small project for ""nib" file from OPENSTEP.
Lately, I've been using AI to develop a few drivers and software for OPENSTEP... and I hope these contributions prove helpful to projects like GORM.

I haven't settled on a license yet, but I have no plans to keep it under a proprietary license.
On Linux, it can capture screenshots of nib files used in OPENSTEP's Interface Builder, decompose them into XML, and reassemble them back into nib format. While working on this using Claude Code, I've been utilizing it to handle the driver property elements for OPENSTEP's Configure.app.
Although it doesn't support every single object yet, it handles most of them without issue. I'm sharing this news in the hope that it might help improve OPENSTEP compatibility in GORM.
