The typing was stripped out, and so was the popup routine. This is what will soon be a stand alone button routine, which will work in the WP. Sorry you guys have to put up with a 70 year old 'stripper'. Maybe Steve has enough donation money left over to buy you guys something better.

So you wouldn't do anything differently, good.
Kidding aside, these posts are new because these two projects are new. This will evolve into a separate buttons library. The other into a popup library. Oh, glad you picked up on the 'radio' aspect. That was fun to code.
The reason why I don't include 'works in progress' in zip files, is because they are unfinished, and probably buggy. I wouldn't want do download such for someone else and have it on my hard drive. Of course I see your point for ease of use to open the zip file, extract, load, and run. Personally, I'd rather do a forum select, copy, then paste the program into an untitled IDE. I then simply dispose of it after testing. Hey, I smell a poll in the works. Woohoo!
As far as criticism goes, it's a good thing for interacting and learning. People who can't use criticism are like subroutines with no calling labels. Oh, about the +2, I considered it, and then gave it to Bob, who also answered the question.
@TerryRitchie
So now that we've established it wasn't set up for typing, how about the buttons? What do you generally use for your on screen game controls?
@TheBOB
Thanks! What do I owe you for an out-of-Gotham run? Oh I know +2 rep points. BTW. Using the @symbol followed by a person's log in name sends a forum PM alert to the individual directing 'they' to your reply. Woke is soooooo stupid!
