Thanks for reminding me! The setup-app.py script indirectly uses a 
MacPython module, and that is not installed in a vanilla install. I'll 
have to rewrite the buildtools module.

You might want to try TableModel2, this contains the same code but now 
part of a ProjectBuilder project. This project does work with python 
2.2.

Not that this patch actually helps you, after sending my previous 
e-mail I checked in the patch and tried to start the example from the 
command-line and got an error from Cocoa about not being able to find a 
value in the Info.plist file. And then I remembered: To use NIB files 
you have to have a real .app bundle.
