"""TableModel.py -- Minimal example showing how to use an NSTableView.

To build the demo program, run this line in Terminal.app:

    $ python setup.py py2app -A

This creates a directory "dist" containing TableModel.app. (The
-A option causes the files to be symlinked to the .app bundle instead
of copied. This means you don't have to rebuild the app if you edit the
sources or nibs.)

# Or rather, this app shows how to create an object conforming to the
# NSTableDataSource protocol.  The model object is connected to the table view
# in the nib, both as the delegate and the data source.  The table view will
# ask our object for data; it controls us, not the other way around.
