Response to: This article is an excellent idea for a book
No, it's not what I'm looking for. As I say, if it were up to me you could skip the Interface Builder part completely (except for (perhaps) a -very- brief introduction in an appendix). Also, what I want is a book that does _not_ assume knowledge of C. Most fresh programmers today know something like Basic or Java, or some sort of scripting language, but not C. So this should be a Programming C and Objective C book, with focus on makin small command line applications. All the other stuff comes in the other books.

  I agree. I know C++ and Java, and while I've been told many times that if you know C++ you can figure out C, it'd be much easier for me to just start at the very basics, like this article, and build up. In a book, I'd probably just skip the first chapter and relearn the rest.

  I'm reading this because I'm looking for a book exactly like this. Having some minor experience with PHP and Python I would love to start with C -- and Objective C on my Mac ...
