Re: is this badly written code?

Another approach if you are targeting 10.5 is to use the new dot syntax since the methods you call should be accessors. (Note that this all assumes that the accessors that use the dot syntax are declared and defined as returning specific types; i.e., mainWindowController returns an NSWindow

I don't think there's anything wrong combining messages into a chain when you only need one variable from it. With the well-worded method names common with Cocoa it's not too hard to see what the chain is doing. Sometimes having a bunch of placeholder variables on each line can look more

The chained approach is tempting since it's short and convenient, so if the code is not prone to failure, I'd say go for it. If you expect that you might need to see intermediate values in the debugger or there are weird edge cases where something might return nil, I'd break it out into multip
