Are you sure they sold you the whole book?
A lot of my recipes go way beyond what's simple. Keyed archiving; using a
combo box with data source to filter a table view; undo/redo in text fields
-- to name only a few. Hardly simple stuff.
As to omitting outline views, it's a very hard topic. I've only recently
figured out how to do them right. As I said in the intro to the book, it
doesn't touch on every class in Cocoa because it isn't meant to be an
encyclopedia. I wanted to write a book that shows you how to write a Cocoa
application while preparing you to learn the rest yourself.
