Options

• data-delay: How long to show each item in the list, in miliseconds. Defaults to 2 seconds (2000 ms).
• data-order: Built in order functions include natural, random without replacement, reverse. Defaults to natural order / order unchanged.
• data-texts: List in JSON form. Checked if dyn-text.textContent is empty.
• data-delimiter: How to parse innerText. Defaults to a slash separator. Works with a single string or a two element array, like [",", "and"]. (Text can be with or without an Oxford Comma.)
  Note: Data delimiter only affects textContent at initial element load time.
