Not that my opinion has much weight on this matter, but I also recently
started playing with PyObjC and Cocoa. I really noticed that the API
documentation that apple provides is extremely hard to navigate. My
buddy told me that there are programs to read the documentation. Of all
the programing languages and all the API's I have learned, this is the
first time I've heard of such a thing. I'm not sure what exactly this
says about the API, but I'm thinking its not good. I don't really have
a point to make here. And with that...
I think it's a very good point. It would be really nice if Apple had all the documentation in the header files, so that documentation in different formats (like Apple's current docs, or like Java html docs, or whatever) could be autogenerated, in particular so that people could generate whatever kind of docs they wanted. If that were the case, it should even be easy to even generate PyObjC-syntax docs for the frameworks. What the heck, I'll post it as a bug on http://bugreport.apple.com just for fun.
