! branch.h
!
! a class for branching menus
!
! by Chris Klimas
!
! designed for Inform 6.15
! you can use this extension for free, but give me credit
!
!
! an overview:
!
! this a class definition.
!
! num_branches 			how many branches are in the set
!
! branch_1, etc			the text of each branch
!
! chosen_1, etc			a string of function, printed or run if
!						the respective branch is chosen
!
! display				call this function to display the branch
!
!
! how you should really use this library:
!
! step 1. draw all the branches out on paper. figure out what's going on,
!         because once you start coding, everything gets more confusing.
! step 2. design an object for each branch point.
! step 3. code chosen_1, etc., appropriately to link to other branch_sets
!		  (by calling the next branch_set's display).
! step 4. test.
! step 5. repeat step 4.
!
! include this library before any branch_set definitions.
!

! This function is a low-level input hook.
