This is for a true alloc/init combination.

Parameters:

	_gd	A GDDocument or GDApplicationController.
	_nibName	The managed nib name.

- (id) initWithGD:		(id)	_gd
andNibName:		(NSString *)	_nibName
andCallback:		(GDCallback *)	_callback

Init this object with a GDDocument, nib name, and callback.

This is for a true alloc/init combination.

Parameters:

	_gd	A GDDocument or GDApplicationController.
	_nibName	The managed nib name.
	_callback	A GDCallback.

- (void) lazyInitWithGD:		(id)	_gd
andNibName:		(NSString *)	_nibName

Lazy init this object with a GDDocument, or a GDApplicationController and the nib name to manage.

Parameters:

	_gd	A GDDocument or GDApplicationController.
	_nibName	The nib name to manage.

- (void) lazyInitWithGD:		(id)	_gd
andNibName:		(NSString *)	_nibName
andCallback:		(GDCallback *)	_callback

Lazy init this object with a GDDocument, or a GDApplicationController the nib name to manage and a callback.

Parameters:
