I absolutely appreciate your details and reasons that I should stick
to the Cocoa way.
And yes I do need to keep at the reading and testing. I guess it's
just all of the Ruby and Rails and CSS that gets in my way of
thinking. That and that when I crack open demo source like drawkit
Skecth and other Opengl programs that their of them have "viewable"
nib files that show off GUIs other than maybe a tool bar and a custom
view widget.
Common apps that use tables and shelves like Mail or other todo apps
are not on my target and frankly may never be, so the current round of
tuts just discourages me from digging through them. Eh i'll force
myself any.
