Alternately, you can open a specific anchor in your book:
[[NSHelpManager sharedHelpManager] openHelpAnchor:
@"baseAnchor" inBook: myBookName];
This feature is overlooked by most, but is a great facility: It
*only* needs the name of the anchor. Given you ran the Apple Help
Indexing Tool on your help book (see
http://zathras.de/angelweb/x2005-04-18.htm on how to automate this),
and unique anchor names, this means you can move around help book
content without any need to change anything in the app.
Even better, if you have a technical writer doing the work of writing
your help book (which you should), you can just tell her to add the
anchors to the relevant portions of the docs, without having to agree
on a certain structure.
The only thing I'm still missing is the good old Apple Guide Coach Mark... :-)
