In all the docs on categories, I seem to have missed what the term for the text 
within the parens of a category declaration is called and what function it 
serves.  

Any idea?

Also, I seem to remember the esteemed Jens stating that as soon as a category 
class is in your project, it applies to all objects instantiated from the base 
class and we only had to do an import if we wanted to use the category methods 
in the debugger.  Please correct me if I am wrong here.

But I found out that that is not true.  You have to import the category header 
into any classes where you want to take advantage of the category methods you 
added to a specific class.  The import can be done on a specific file level, 
into a .pch if you want your whole app/module to be able to take advantage of 
the methods.  

Did I misread Jens’s statement?

Cheers,
Alex Zavatone
