Very time consuming though... I was wondering about taking notes too actually, not sure if I can type fast enough on it. I'm surprised there's no note-taking/drawing app out there. It would be so useful. Have fun in Jonny B's Nuts and Bolts class - I SO wish I could take it!

In the normal shell, I don't have to use ESC f and ESC b now... Meta-f and Meta-b for jumping forward. Thanks! pressing ESC is much slower than just holding Opt down. Michelle, you rock. And I'm seriously jealous of your artistic skill with the ipad. Now, if I could find a free app for taking notes in lecture for the ipad that will let me type and sketch! I tried using the iPad for Jonny's MB Nuts and Bolts, I was fine with Notes until he started making some drawings talking about all the rotation angles and how sectors work. Yeah!

I run and debug all of my scripts through iPython now.

Do you like it better than GRASS? The only reason I wanted to try GRASS is because it's the only one I'd heard of. I just had a quick look at their website, and this one looks cool too.
