Well, two things have pop'd up that are really important. The first is very
important – the definition of “RegID”. I said that Dabo will assign a unique
RegID if one is not assigned by the programmer. This is WRONG! “RegID” must
be assigned by the programmer. It was my misunderstanding.

In a tutorial, you should only include what is necessary, as it will
become a reference doc for others, and they may assume that they need
to write evt.stop() everywhere.
