Ratings and reviews

App is good, but it's hard to fix bugs in my code. You aren't able to retract or extend lines. I tried to use the sys.setfont() but doesn't work. Please fix these and I will update my rating.

I can not find a Documents folder where the scripts supposedly saved.Please use a diffetent folder that I can easily reach to edit the scripts

Very good! But why is it missing all the liberys that the ios version had? Please respond im curiosous.
