Consider changing wording of hold() and release() #53

Closed connorgr closed 8 years ago

A less confusing wording might be enableNextBtn() and disableNextBtn().

Agree. @tacitia -- any thoughts?

To me the wordings were not self-explanatory at first, but they started to make a lot of sense once I looked at what the functions do. I also think hold() and release() have the merits of being succinct. I'm inclined to think that this won't be a problem as long as there is an API, but that's just my 2 cents.

I'm also swayed by the succinctness side. It's possible that we add functions in the style that @connorgr suggests that simple call hold() and release() as a first step.

Later, if we have better documentation or tutorial pages, we can introduce the hold and release concept there.
