Hint: Vim's syntax highlighting works better under X. You can also convert the syntax highlighted text file to HTML, a feature that works only under X (don't ask me why -- I got an error message when I tried it under the console.) I think Bill would find that feature quite handy when he gives presentations since he wouldn't have to colorize everything by hand (poor Bill...)
