ExPilot in a window, played with the keys or the mouse: the title, the lobby, the arena, the summary, the settings, a connect screen and a serve screen, every one drawn on the same canvas (ExPilot.Wx.Screens on Cauldron2D.Wx.Text), the arena on Cauldron2D.Wx.View.

ExPilot.Wx.run(fields: %{name: "alice"})

l on the title or in the lobby shows the leaders: the boards of the place the lobby lists (this app's, a server's over GET /api/leaders, a node's), ←/→ the period, Tab the metric. Enter on the title plays here: the arenas this app carries, with their robots, no set-up. c connects elsewhere — a server by its URL (a token from POST /api/token, the arenas over its WebSocket) or a node this one connects to (its worlds joined across the connection, its maps adopted here) — and the lobby then lists that place's arenas. s is the settings: the effects and music levels and whether the pointer steers, the desktop's own (Cauldron2D.Drafter.Client.Settings with the kind :desktop, in <name>.desktop.settings) and applied to the arena as they change. h is the serve screen: ExPilot.Server with the ports, interfaces, accounts file and robots typed in, for players on other machines.
