Huh. I'd always wondered what the .api file was for (was I the only one?).

The .api file is mentioned briefly in Marker's book (p 40) as being used
in sub-components, but there's no more detail. I have some vague feeling
that I read of binding a fetch in the .api file too, but I can't pin it
down.

Tips? Tutorials?
