The thing about NSUndoManager is that it is a multi-level undo framework, and this app is a single undo.

You do realize that Mac users will consider the app broken for that reason, right?


NSUndoManager is just a pair of message stacks. That's one of the things that the Obj-C runtime makes possible: we can capture a message, send it to another object, or save it in a list for future use. NSUndoManager's documentation isn't abstract, but it may seem that way to you since it really is that simple.

Several years ago, Ken Dyke wrote a very good description of the differences between Obj-C and C++, and he used the example of NSUndoManager to make the comparison. You can read it here:
