@spaceblue: Good point! I was hesitant to make it too much like the original. The video daily doubles would have been really hard! :)

Hello! I was looking at your code, and it all works beautifully. I was wondering if I might be able to implement this for a different topic though. I've created a new .txt document following your format, but can't seem to get the program to accept the science.txt file name. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Never mind! For anyone having the same issue, you'll need to close out of Greenfoot entirely and re-open your project file before the question changes take place.

Hi Martin747, You should be able to simply put your "science.txt" file into the same folder as the source code. Then when you run the program you can just type "science.txt" (without the quote marks) and it will load the file. I have tried this and it seems to work well.

The question "This is a class and often contains another class" gave Actor as an an anwser, and said it usually contains other classes such as GreenfootImage or String. Those would be instances of a class, aka objects, which is different from a class. Other than that I thought it was a great scenario. And how did you make that textbox?

Hi AwesomeNameGuy, Thanks for the correction! You are right, of course. I corrected the question and uploaded a new scenario with the correction. The textbox is from my project GUI World at http://www.greenfoot.org/scenarios/2371 . There are a lot of things that went into the text box. For example, it uses a TextLayout from the Java API to keep track of cursors within the text. I have some design notes in the README.TXT file for the GUI World project.
Thanks. I remeber spending hours trying to program my own text box with only mediocre results. Never got a cursor to work either. I'll have to check it out.
