Much cooler that it appears. The UI easily presents numbered/named lists of things to click on. The twill version of my web scraper is about 20 times shorter than the old one, since the twill one is 3 lines long!

I tried TestGen4Web briefly as a way to record in-browser surfing, but it wasn't convenient enough to turn the recording into twill output. The twill cmdline UI is plenty for now.
