Getting started in Cocoa and IB

Recently I've decided to overcome my deficiencies in user interface
programming. Usually I've mucked around at the kernel level and command
line tools are enough.

However, I need to design user interfaces and would like to use InterfaceBuilder
and the Cocoa object environment.

However, my very simplistic first try seems to be very frustrating. What I need is
a hint on how to have a NSTextField result in an action which takes the string
typed by the user, and placed in a regular 'char' variable for use in a set of
standard C functions.

While Cocoa book has a very simple intro project involving a few buttons and
an output text field, which I was able to follow and get working, the complementary
operation of inputing text seemed difficult to find.

Could someone point to an example of simple text input to a field and have
the action pick up the data.

Thanks
John Clark
