Given a 30 kb region of genomic DNA, and sequence start and stop info
on dozens of different exons that are of specific interest within this
sequence, what's the easiest way to draw a quick picture showing
visually just where all of these exons are, with labels?

This is quite different from exon prediction. We already know where
the sequences of interest are - we need a summary to which we can
easily refer. Drawing a map either by hand or with the computational
tools I know takes a huge amount of time, though. Is there an existing
tool to make it quick and easy?
