Dave Pearson d22353d2ec Correct the description of what the button example does
Originally it was partially correct in that it did sound the bell, but it
also then exited the application and printed the details of the button --
the text didn't mention the latter aspect. This corrects that and removes
mention of the bell sound because we've now removed that.

## Additional Notes
* The spacing between the text and the edges of a button are due to border, _not_ padding. To create a button with zero visible padding, use the `border: none;` declaration.
