Greetings,
Side note, in my litany of MacRuby awesomeness, I left out trivially easy
Grand Central Dispatch queues to do background downloading of HTML and
images!
I've sent a bit more details on this to Matt, but I wanted to share a
version with the list.
On Thu, Feb 3, 2011 at 5:35 PM, Matt Aim
if it's specific to my book, please use my personal email but if it's more
general and about what kind of MacRuby dic you would love to see, please
reply here.

Gotcha. So you want more feedback in other words.
I presume this list is not the best place for it -- is there an

I agree Perry, that's why I need your help to balance the required Cocoa

It does make it a bit harder to use, though, for someone com
Thanks Morgan for the feedback.
I appreciate your feedback on the CoreData chapter and I'm on the fence in
regards to what I want to cover.
I don't really aim for this book to be a Cocoa book, but a MacRuby book
which is really hard since it's like writing a book about Objective-C
without covering
Greetings,
It's looking very interesting, and I bought it...!
I have to admit I'm slightly frustrated by the parts that go deep into the
non-MacRuby aspects of Mac OS X development (IB and the entity designer) and
then skim over what I feel are important details. The chapter I always come
back to

I've just bought my copy, too. Keep up the brilliant work, Matt!
Between this, and the fact that people are already publishing MacRuby apps to
the Mac app store, it seems like this is a really good place to be

cent.

Thanks a lot, it's been quite challenging to keep up with trunk, to find an
interesting way to explain MacRuby & Cocoa and to not lose motivation. Thank
you guys for the kind words, it means a lot to me.

I've happily purchased a copy, thanks Matt! You've done a great job. I've
been reading the online version as you've been writing it and have found it

I also only read printed books, as my eye sight is too bad to read books on
screens :)
I can't wait to buy a copy of Matt's book in the local bookstore, what a
milestone it will be!

I'm old fashioned--I've already ordered the paper version and am awaiting
shipping.
Am I the last person who still likes printed books?

Sorry to hijack a bit, but since you're here Matt... :) Are there any

Bought the book although I barely browsed the free HTML version.
I figure it's a worthwhile investment, seeing how my livelihood depends on
MacRuby now :-).
