I'm inclined to agree with Searle. I see a lot of 'RTFM'

Its appropriate. In this case it simply means
"Read The Forthcoming Manual"
I have to admit I am often surprised at how many descriptions for
methods are "forthcoming", and I do find that tends to discourage me
from looking. That is, the descriptions may be there, but I have hit so
many brickwalls in the past that I am hesitant to invest lots of time to
look for something.
However, I am not ready to blame Apple. The developers and tech writers
obviously have a lot on their plate, and they have to prioritize. Speed
and stability are two of my primary complaints. I hear lots of
grumbling by Carbon folks about the flux and stability of that side of
the house, and getting lots of MacOS 9.x apps ported to Carbon is
probably a very high business priority (or at least, it should be IMHO).
So for now I shall be patient. And I am thankful for this mailing list.
And I will try to never tell anyone to RTFM.
Cheers,
Todd
