Thanks Sam,
Appkido is very nice, giving a better overview of refdocs then Xcode does.
However it does not add any intelligence, but just takes the underlying doc
structure as is. So in my example it would be of little help. Is there any
web site that describes how to find your way around in refdocs and how it is
structured?
