I use pencil and paper to sketch things out as I design them.  Then I
hand-code scripts.  That's it.  If I'm using an image_map, I'll create
it via the most effective means (POV render or Paint Shop).

For many functions I have developed script macros that greatly simplify
things.  Some of the macros simply toss together primitives in ways that
get done alot, and others do complicated things, like plotting out the
steps taken by a character walking along a path.

John
