So while I wait for my board to come in I am starting to get up to speed on the environment and the Arduino syntax. This is going to sound really weird but for the life of me I could not find a screenshot of the IDE. Of course if you really want a screenshot you can always do a google image search and find one but what I am saying is that on the general Arduiono website I don't recall seeing one so the first time I got a glimpse of the software was after I had installed it. It looks much more like a text editor than what was expected based upon my experience with IDEs for other micro-controller platforms. Seems to have very few panes with essentially a code editing area and then a status output below. I'm not saying that is a bad thing, just different. It makes me wonder how you manage multiple files in a project in order to bring in the libraries you create, etc.
Below is an obligatory screenshot of an example opened in the editor window.
