Great suggestion. I will work on adding those. I will put WIP next to the topics that are not finished as well

Hi,
Have not used Pythonista for a long while and I was trying to copy your code into it on my iPad. However, I can't seem to do it. Last time I was here I thought there was a quick and easy way to do this but I can't seem to find it. Can you point me in the right direction please?
Regards
Gary
