The "target" is the object that your selector message will be sent
to.
How will your TableView know which object responds to the selector
you
give it? It's not magic...

It did help indeed, and even solved my problem! (it now works with a
single click by the way, just as in Mail). I was confused because
although I already knew how an action in an object could be the target
of a button or a single cell in a table view, I hadn't yet understood
that it could be the target of a table view "as a whole", with the
action triggered by any of the cells in it. Many thanks!

Based on your description of the problem, you probably want to update your lower pane via:

- (void)tableViewSelectionDidChange:(NSNotification *)notification;

That wouldn't be very useful for what I do because I also want
the Mail-like feature of multiple selection (and possible erasing of
the selected items). Generally, I think using delegate methods like
this becomes awkward when there are many ways for the selection to change.

You can go the click-action way, but in the end it won't work like Mail. You won't know when arrow keys change the selection, or type selection changes the selection.


I've used apps that do it just the click-way and it annoys me that they don't work with the keyboard.
