I finished task two of my to-do list today, so now my HUD's data is all stored in files for easy modification. I have the single lines of info (like "Score" and the smiley face characters) in "statics.txt", and the actual data in "layout.txt". The format for the statics is one static per line, in the form " ".

For the layout file, things are a little different, because there's a specific number of data items that the game needs to place. There's nine data fields on the HUD, so there has to be a corresponding line for each. The format is just like the statics.txt, but in the form " ".

In the end, a chunk of code for laying out the HUD has been taken out. Yay clean code. I think I'm going to work on the timer class next...

(I haven't had comments in ages! A simple "hey, looks good" would be nice XD)
