As I just replied to jcap, I'm looking for A Better Way, IOW different
techniques.

Here's an example of a better way to do a presentation:  when we were
meeting at the college in Bethlehem, you invited some guys from the
Philly (?) PM group. They used OOo Impress to display their code.
Well, so have I.  What the Philly guys did was to gray out most of the
screen and highlight the code they were talking about in white on
black. Great technique!

I can't live without screen and vim, but that's mostly sysadmin stuff.
 How do you guys use vim and screen for development (and what are "the
other tools"?).
