Yeah, I have to figure out a way to debug it on those computers, which don't
currently have any programming software installed (they are not even mine).

The reason I tend to have a lot of problems is that I tend to like to push
these programs as far as I can. ;) Frankly, I have most of what I was trying
to do figured out, all of this stuff works perfectly on my computer, but I
was just curious about trying to distribute some executables.
But I am very thankful for making such a great library and system, and it
does do almost all of what I want.
