Hugh, your app looks promising. I will try it out for a week and see how it fits into my workflow.

One side question: what is the terminal icon in your menubar? I must have that app (whatever it is).

Heh, it's called Visor, from the makers of Quicksilver:

You can hack Terminal.app so it becomes a background app too, like Quicksilver/ActionGear:

I also made it a "login item" to start on system start up. System prefs -> Accounts -> Login Items.

So now, I always have a command line prompt handy =P.
