I love this hack for hitting C-c C-c in vim and having your current paragraph telegraphed to whatever screen window you want. I imagine it'd work for demos just as well as developing bash scripts.

Very cool. I love vim and never came across this post. In fact, the link to Jerris Welt's post on 'Scripting screen for fun and profit' [1] seems handy also.

The utility used at WWDC is called DemoMonkey: http://developer.apple.com/mac/library/samplecode/DemoMonkey...

edit: The description in the article sounds like they could have used DemoAssistant http://developer.apple.com/mac/library/samplecode/DemoAssist...

Thanks for the reference to the OSX tools. I was wondering what they used.
