Have a look at: http://www.cs.vu.nl/~etienne/pyDotView.tar.gz

It is the 'DotView' example from the Apple 'Learning Cocoa' book 
converted to a Python App.
I think the source code will make it clear, a single custom class with 
instance in IB for the Custom View, and then the code in Python for 
that class.
