PLEASE NOTE, THIS IS NOT YET WORKING!!!
*****************************************************************************

I have this crazy idea of translating CoffeeScript to Objective-C for
use in Apple Cocoa projects. This is just a little playground and
I'm not quite sure if those two worlds can ever work together in a nice
way, but at least I will give it a try.


# HOW TO IMPLEMENT

My idea is that you set up your projects in Xcode as you are used to. 
For discrete classes like custom views and controllers you then might 
want to use a CoffeeScript file which will then automatically become
translated to a header and an implementation file. (This could use 
'Pre-actions' like I do in my XObjC project https://github.com/holtwick/xobjc)

The great strength of CoffeeScript is that you do not have to care a
lot about the high level objects like dictionaries and lists. These should
then be mapped to NSObject based values. Also the better string handling 
could save a lot of time and headaches. Everything should become an object
and they should know how to interact with each other.

For the IBActions and IBOutlets we might need some coding conventions.
Also for calling and defining Objective C methods. As much as possible it 
should be a typeless, so arguments in newly defined methods would
most probably become 'id' objects.


   The profit of all this could be 
   writing native Cocoa apps 
   with much less code!


# SAMPLE

class MyViewController extends UIViewController

    IBOUTLET = 
        myView: UIView

    viewDidLoad: -> 
        @title = 'Test #{ somevariable }'
        @view.addSubview @myView
        @addSubview @myView
        @myView.setFrame 1,2,3,4

    viewDidAppear_animated: (view, animated) ->
        NSLog 'Great!'

    IBACTION_doSomething: (sender) ->
        @myView.hidden = 1
