Using the Debug feature
#14
Rats! I should have run the code with it on/off a couple of times before adding that option in.

Here is the correct code, with SLEEP disabled. It prints to the console, so it's easy to just scroll it after it's finished. Also lowered the digits from 32 to 12, so it gets right to it without extra clutter. I also forgot I needed to set betatest% to -2. I have some other routines I use this with where betatest at -1 shows those other functions. It's a neat way to separate what you want shown.

Working code:
