It is definitely better, no doubt.

I have adapted it in my pdfviewer for the guide that is, with some minor changes, but it works like a charm.

Good material for the guide, as I'm gonna have them face this problem and next solve it step by step, with this being the last step. Perfect example for learning to understand problems and solutions.
You will be remember in the guides (by name if that's okay, if not just call out how you want to be mentioned).
