Yes. What is happening is that the event handler (entered()) is being called
on each change in the value of the button state, i.e 1->0 as well as 0->1.
Use the following code and things are okay.

void Namer::entered() {
  int value = 0;
  enterBS->GetValue(value);
  if (value)
  {
    cout << stringEditor->Text() << endl;
    enterBS->SetValue(0);
  }
}

This will ensure that something is only done on 0->1 transition.

I presumed it was an oversight in the guide.
