Question: I made the command line helloworld project and it worked. When I try to build from XCode the option to build a "Cordova-Based" application is not there. This picture is what it supposed to show. I don't have the icon. I went through install like the wiki says, Xcode was closed, then I tried the helloworld, success:), and the New Project Cordova-Based... crap, really...

What I should see

Answer: 
I ran the 1.9 installer and it showed up in Xcode.
this option was deleted in Cordova 2.xx
