<h4 class="subsection">1.1.7 Can I use my original NIB files?</h4>

<p>No - NeXT/Apple never documented their nib format, so GNUstep supports
both the &rsquo;gmodel&rsquo; format (which stores information as text
(property-lists) and can therefore be edited &rsquo;by hand&rsquo;) and binary
archive format (which can be edited by Gorm).  There IS a conversion
tool called nib2gmodel that can be compiled under OPENSTEP to convert
nib files to GNUstep gmodel files.
</p>
<p>The current version of gui supports reading nib files created as of 10.2. 
If you have nib files which are older than this, you can convert them by
loading them into Interface Builder, going to the &quot;file&quot; second and saving 
the nib using the &quot;10.2 or later format.&quot;
