Lets see :)

Jep, fixed for shure.

I cant wait to see the source code :)

Maybe, althrough I think, at least at the Deutsches Museum, they
don't treat their computers as they should - my favourated project
would be to get the Deutsches Museum 2002 back to work, eventualy
with an exception of the drum, which should be replaced by a small
(invisible) modern single chip controller to simulate it, since
spining up every day for demonstration purpose wasn't possible even
back when the machine was new.
Anyway - great accident.
