mneorr··on Alcatraz – Package manager for Xcode 5
Since the original one is really long; would make the install script even less readable.

Also, git.io allows only shortening github repos; so there should be no harm

unfortunately we wrote it on an Macbook Air, where it worked pretty good. It lags horribly on an MBP retina, we might fix that

The plan is to use github releases from now on, and shorten using git.io

It's like jailbreak for Xcode, that's the metaphor

If you mkdir -p ~/Library/Developer/Xcode/UserData/FontAndColorThemes/ , does it work then?

You need to install Command line tools from the Preferences pane. After that you should be good to go.

We'll add that notice probably tomorrow.

Shawshank sounds like an awesome name; Alcatraz was just the first one that came to my mind.

It also has File templates. Most likely, it will support snippets soon.

Thanks for the report, adding this in the Alcatraz. He should do it instead of you ;)

There is a template called Xcode-Plugin-Template. Install Alcatraz, install the template, and you're good to go :)

The template will set your new plugin up, so you'll be ready to start coding.

One IMPORTANT downside is that Xcode doesn't support ARC, so you'll want to write -retain, -release, -autorelease
