[MacRuby-devel] Modal sheet question

[Matt Aimonetti]

Rich Kilmer and I have been working on a new MVC approach for HotCocoa and
Rich is currently implementing a new delegation system between the views and
the controllers to make things way easier.

I didn't check on the modal sheet yet and I don't really know how to
programmatically set all the options, but you might want to look at setting
up/extending some mappings to make the task easier.
