Preview Changes:

Color Pallet:
brings up a color pallet window, just click on the color wanted.
window will disappear & Red text labels will turn red to let you know that a color is stored.
then click on the word text "Red" and it will fill in the selected color.
Picked Color will not change until you choose another color.
Clicking on Object property text words will bring up different things depending on word clicked:
File
- open a file dialog
- stars in C:\
Font
- open a font dialog
- fills in name, size,
style, & color if other than black is selected <--Updated w/ style & color now
Command
- opens a larger input window to enter longer command lines
- if command selected first then it will start with that command
Must preview changes at least once in order to be able to commit changes to file. Just a double check to make sure that is what you want, and no glitches in programming (shouldn't be any).
Also upon committing changes makes a backup of the original in the same dir with "_original" on the end of the file.
Clean exit of program, deletes all files used when running.
The only thing that you might have to keep an eye out for is the usage of the quotes on properties like commands and such but then that’s what the preview is there for...
Hope you enjoy!
List any changes that you think that would make it better (I think that I have done a fairly good job already, but...I'm only one)
