It happened to be my second time ever coding in objC, so I'm fairly certain it was crap.

My later patches (think I've made two or three so far) got accepted without change :)

Hope I have time soon to make the automagic indentation feature that's possible with the new AST thingy. Also hope somebody hasn't beaten me to it yet :P

Your intellectual honesty and ability to judge your work dispassionately, as well as the fact that he accepted your work, lead me to believe that it might not have been crap.
