Here is a better version, it has had a few things done to reduce the instruction count in the typing loop but it probably does not matter as there are API calls in the loop code. Zip file attached.

Sorry, but I am a perfectionist.

Thought has a "t" on the end.

[jj2007]

I am also a perfectionist: How does one call somebody who quotes over 60 lines of text in order to complain about one single line?

(hint: the word starts with "tr" and ends with "oll").

It is late.

Can you simplify your answer ?

Have you had Alaskan King Crab with butter ?

[hutch--]

If all you have to say is a comment about a typo (missing "t") then you don't have much to say but then that is normal for Andy.

> Have you had Alaskan King Crab with butter ?

Have you been sniffing gasoline to say something that stupid ? Perhaps a therapeutic dose of loco weed.  :P

I post the CODE for people who write software who may have been interested, not to listen to drivel.
