Hi,
just wanted to make a little ad... I started coding a GM tool (to be
used on a laptop during the gaming session, especially on a very small
on like the EEE). It's written in Java (5.0), so it should run on almost
any operating system...
It can be used to manage/display notes, pictures and to play songs.
Pictures can be displayed on a 2nd screen (for example a video
projector), so that the players can see them. You can even add tokens to
this picture and move them around (for example to simulate the PC's
locations).
There's also a basic character managment, which can display any
character, not only GURPS ones, in a simple tree view. I also added the
possibility to plugin (simply copy to /plugin) more complex character
sheets, so that you can customize the tool for your system.
Some instructures to use it, write characters, code plugins, etc. will
follow as soon as I put a new wiki online for the tool.
I haven't tested it yet in a real gaming session, because my next
Transhuman Space session as a gm will be next week. If anyone wants to
test it, feel free to download it from

Comments would be much appreciated.
Have fun,
Flo
