iOS I'm interested in developing apps for iPhone..

Yay, a ton more useless trash apps coming soon!

I assume you didn't mean by your post that a quick reference guide to Objective-C would be a "useless trash app?

Haha, I sure didn't, I meant of course the OP's yet-to-be-made apps
I actually really like your book and a quick reference guide would definitely be one of the apps that deserve to be in the App Store!

Hmm, I have always included language summaries as a reference in my C, shell, and Objective-C books. Funny things is that I never get any sort of comments or acknowledgements about them, so I've come to assume they're not used or viewed as important by the users (they're typically not an insignificant amount of work to create---for example, there is not other Objective-C language summary that I'm aware of).

Many years ago I had done 8-1/2 x 11" plastic cheat sheets for Shell and C programming.

Let me ask your opinions: Would having it online (as it exists now) or even as a (free) iPhone app or ePub doc work as a quick reference or would you still like to see it physically in the back of the book?

If you make an app like that available, I would certainly have it on my phone and would likely use it quite a bit. Having it physically in the book would be great too!

BTW I'm working in the 2nd printing of your book right now (in chapter 15.) Even though it's an older edition and some of the methods in it have since been deprecated, it's really helping me a lot to grasp Objective-C. Thank you for making it available!

Was the "Haha!" a disappointed haha?

No, the Haha was just showing how far you can get without learning C. As you know I don't recommend learning C first before Objective-C.
