I needed to write a small commandline utility. I could’ve done it in C, but I like Cocoa so I’m doing it in ObjC. It’s great.
Anyway, I needed to parse the arguments to my utility and so I started trying to remember the best way to pull what I needed out of char**argv; I seemed to recall a built-in function on Unix so I started Googling…
…and I found this great post by Greg Miller describing how to do it with NSUserDefaults.
This almost makes up for the travesty that is web services on the platform.
Thanks, Apple!
