One story....

When I started working with Minivend a couple of years ago, I did 
everything on a windows box, then ftp'd it to the server - and I used an 
ftp client for most basic unix commands as well (chmod, etc).  I would only 
run telnet to install Minivend or run makecat.

Since then, I done a near-complete turn-around (with much of the change 
occuring recently), and do almost everything via telnet sessions: between 
tools like pico, vi, sed, the unix utils and command-line perl there is 
little that I need to do offline, other than work with graphics and bulk 
work with database source files.

Usually, when starting a new project, I will use a WYSIWYG HTML tool in 
Windows to "draft" the site and nail down the look and structure.  From 
there I usually switch to unix text editing and I don't look back.
