Thanks. It's just a single file, so I don't really see the need to package it. It's open source, so you're free to do whatever you want with it, but can I please ask that you credit, or provide a link to this gist. Have a great day.

@VeloSteve Thank you so much for the fix. I've been stuck on this for an hour......
