the Documentation window in Xcode now provides everything that DL did, and more.

Except the complete works of Shakespeare. ;) At least with Tiger we got the dictionary back.


when you search you're searching the current documentation on your machine, as well as the sample code, technotes etc. updated information on the web (typically sample code and technotes that come out on a different schedule than tech pubs has) is also searched.

Pretty spiffy. I have only used it once or twice, and did not realize it also searched the Web.


I just submitted requests for the API search mode to do substrings, not just prefixes, and for the full text search mode to do stemming.

As I read this thread, I assumed everybody was talking about the Web site as the point of entry into the documentation. Maybe the first point of entry that people turn to should actually be the Xcode Documentation window.
