    modah,
    The DLL is packaged inside the widget. When you download and run the widget, the first time you enable Type Anywhere mode it will automatically install the DLL for you.

Can you have the numbers sort of snap into a lined-up position, or at least make it so if you click or double-click on the numbers they line up? Or More
