   Yup.  When I'm working on a new script I have two Konsoles opened side by side.   
   In one I have the script open using vi, what can I say...I'm a traditionalist,   
   besides that which doesn't kill you makes you stronger.  Make my changes and do   
   a :w while keeping the vi session going.  In the other I run the script,   
   generally the "set -x" is the second thing in the script until I get it working   
   correctly.   
   As far as removable storage goes...I pretty much fire off gparted first thing,   
   set them up as NTFS and label them the way I want to see them.  Meaning my   
   scripts will know what to do to them and the fstab will accept them if I want   
   them mounted at boot.  Why NTFS?  Well it pretty much does everything I want,   
   it's the way all the removable drives are formatted, and more importantly when   
   I   
   plug that 2TB drive full of TV/Movies into the TV it knows how to read the   
   drive.  Plus when I dump mp3's onto a 16GB microSD chip, the car stereo reads   
   NTFS fine.
