I must be really stupid (or in need of much more sleep) but is there
a "Open Recent" command somewhere in Xcode? I see a Recent Project
but where's the Recent File one?
There isn't a global "Open Recent" for regular files.
However, in the navigation bar of the editor pane is the file
history menu. It's next to the previous/next navigation arrows. It
shows the list of files that have been opened in that pane. Hold
down the Option key and it will show the global history list for
that project (i.e. the list of files that have been opened in any
pane). Not exactly the same as an "Open Recent" command, but pretty
darn close.
Thanks for the tip. But it really is not close for it doesn't open
the file in its own window, which totally defeats the purpose of
opening multiple files at the same time.

Single window source editor was my most hated thing toward the
previous versions of XCode. It's just stupid. It might be OK for a
project with only one header and one source files and outputs only 2
billion variations of "Hello World" but it's just not for any decent
projects.
The recent versions finally allow multiple files being edition in
their own windows. Which is the reason I even dared to start using
it. But all signs so far point to the fact that Apple really doesn't
know what a modern IDE is like. And the company-wise obsession toward
Cocoa does not help either, as indicated in the current speed issue
thread.
We are on an anti-evolution path here. And there's nothing we as 3rd
party developers can do. Sigh.
