Double-click the downloaded disk image, double-click the installer package,
then sit back and relax.



I had Xcode doc window open when I installed the documentation update and it came up with a little sheet saying the the documentation layout had changed, I clicked Ok and it updated itself nicely without having to exit Xcode.

mhmh. I think I estimated the complexity pretty much as it is...what disappointed me was that I had to wait until someone
packaged all those files into one rather big .dmg, and I (at least it seems like that) will be constantly wondering whether
my local docs are in sync with the online ones. I imagine Apple will post updates only in bigger chunks - so I'm back to
reading online docs again :-( (No, I'm not worried about bandwidth *at all* - just annoys me)


BTW, I didn't want to suggest the use of rsync per se. But I think there is a quite reasonable way of distributing >60k files
and at the same time preserving indexes to those files. Maybe not on the file-level, but at a much lower granularity
than I'm afraid we will see in the future.
One mustn't use XML for everything. ;-)

P.S.: Yes, this is OT, but I couldn't resist.
