The problem is:
I have MainMenu.xib with only main menu whose File's Owner is NSApplication. I want to have MainWindow.xib with only a window but that will be launched also when the application starts.

Now you will ask why separate nibs ?
Never mind why ! I just want it that way ! Is that wrong ?

It's not wrong at all. Separate nibs are the recommended way of doing this.

So I read the docs and it says that I need to have File's Owner for that nib that is external to that nib. I tried putting NSWindowController but I don't know where and how do I instantiate that class ? I tried creating a subclass of NSWindowController and using it for the File's Owner and according to output of NSLog everything gets allocated and initialized but window does not get showed. I starting to think that I should do something in main.m but I don't think that would be the right way.
I am doing something wrong so please point me the right way.

You may just need to tell your window controller to display its window. Trying adding:

        [myWindowController showWindow: nil];

after you've initialized your window controller.

Incidentally, in a non-document-based application (as your appears to be), a good place to put code to create your window controller would be in your application delegate's applicationDidFinishLaunching: method. You say you created a window controller. Where *did* you put that code?
