// huffware script: menutini library, by fred huffhines.
//
// this is a library script for menuing that provides a way to remote control the
// menu, somewhat.  another script can zing link messages at this script and a menu
// will be shown based on the specified description and buttons.  when the user
// selects an answer, that result is sent back in a link message reply.

//hmmm: may want this to be selectable from menu request.

// when a script has auto_retire in it, it can be dropped into an

// the version numbers are embedded into the script names themselves.

// major and minor versions are implicitly considered as a floating point
// number that increases with each newer version of the script.  thus,
// "hazmap v0.1" might be the first script in the "hazmap" script continuum,
// and "hazmap v3.2" is a more recent version.
//
// example usage of the auto-retirement script:
//     default {
//         state_entry() {
//            auto_retire();  // make sure newest addition is only version of script.
