@twobob: I tried. I can generate an appropriately sized & laid out transparent PNG with a single IM call (in ~1s, because drawing text is expensive), but eips -g doesn't handle transparency, so, poof, black screen xD.

EDIT: Meh. Did that on the desktop, not the laptop, and it's currently booted on Winshmooze. I'll pull the call from my history next time I reboot.
