Hi Josh, The basis of it are, create your NSDocument subclass, put the relevant document-handling info into your Info.plist file, and hook up the appropriate menu items (New, Save, Open, etc) to the First Responder. If you look into the Document-based Cocoa App template, you can find what all of these menu items hook up into, as well as seeing what the Info.plist is looking for in terms of document-handling info.
