How to create a Toolbar with Mail / Finder like controls

I've been looking at this apple document:

http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/UserExperience/Conceptual/AppleHIGuidelines/Controls/Controls.html

In the Window-Frame Controls section it deescribes

window-frame controls in the Mail toolbar

Mail Toolbar
(source: apple.com)

However, there's no description on how to actually create this interface. I've tried using NSToolBar but it doesn't seem to be used for this purpose and there doesn't seem to be a way to drag a NSButton into this area in InterfaceBuilder.

Any pointers on how to create this type of toolbar?
