Description
When you click a button that contains bad code (including prims that don't yet compile), they don't indicate that they're invalid, and they throw an error on use. Instead, they should be unclickable, and they should show specifically that the code is invalid (like how the text gets red in JVM NetLogo).

Research direction
Start by tracing the button click handling and the error path for invalid code, including prims that do not compile. Done means invalid-code buttons are visibly marked, matching the requested red-text behavior, and cannot be clicked or used.
