[Coco] OT:my video

I posted the thread "I think cococoding.com is hung" with an update notice
to my decode program because I could not connect with cococoding.com. In
that post I stated I was making a video, my first, and I would post when
the video was on youtube. I posted as a reply to that thread. Perhaps I
should have posted a separate thread announcing the video in the subject
line.

As to what it is, it is a options dialog window I am creating to work with
decode so the prompts can disappear and the program can run seamlessly from
beginning to end. Because people have different ideas as to what colors
they prefer a window to be, I included options for selecting screen colors
and window colors. I am also including options for selecting which output
files you wish to generate as a default. This way, you see only what you
want to see, get the output you want to get and don't have to respond to
prompts anymore.

I consider this to be a major improvement to decode, and I want the people
who have an interest and are following my progress to know they will be
able to have a more user-friendly environment with the new improvements. I
am also looking for feedback, such as Mr. Klamer provided. It helps me to
improve decode even more to get such feedback.
