iShowU Pro Settings & Positioning

I record screencasts to present deliverables and training materials to clients and colleagues and use iShowU Pro to do this. It's a great app at a fair price, but getting the settings dialed-in so that you can produce good quality screencasts that are reasonable file sizes takes some tinkering. This is how I do it.

Configuration

As the app will warn you upon initial launch, you'll need to grant it access to control your computer here:

# Alex's changes:
# * erector and erector_mixin
# * each template now includes a loop and a variable (this affects HAML quite a lot)
# * automated comparison and benchmarking 
# * make sure variable is truly being interpolated

# # of iterations = 10000
#                           user     system      total        real

BUILT-INS

Obviously, when looking to program functionally in a given language, the first place one should look is within the language itself. Luckily, while not a Functional language (by any stretch of the word), Ruby has many facilities that enable it to act like one.
