Agreed, that *WOULD* be nice, and, so far as know, the docs lack it. Such a
table definitely *SHOULD* be part of the kit TOC.

OTOH, there is not *THAT* many classes, and a good number of them has quite
intelligible names. I guess you would need a day at worst, probably much
less, just to quickly go trough all the classes' docs (list of classes is
easily available, eg. in *TOC.html), getting so the image, so to speak.

Besides, with a decent search app (which we, alas, don't have, since even
the MTLibrarian is not by far as good as needed, and HelpViewer or Sherlock
are... well, we all know that) the need is _slightly_ diminished: you could
search for the thing you need using a few synonyms ("parse" would not do for
NSScanner, but "interpret" or "scan" would).
