When refactoring: Instead of typing fast, use ST multicursors or VI/emacs macros in an intelligent way. And I really really recommend ST if you don't want to debug your editor macros before debugging your build macros before debugging your code macros before debugging your code (yo dawg etcetera).

But at the end of the day, I think in pictures. I end up using a lot of editor short cuts and "lots of keypresses" style refactoring while I work out the shape I really want. Then, when I get that, fire off some macros to deal with the rest, cleanup, etc.
