:: Choose

The <<choose>> macro is useful for presenting a scene, optionally with branching choices, to the player in bite-sized chunks, rather than beating him about the face with a wall-o-text.

The macro presents you with a set of choices.  When something is picked, the choices are collapsed and the section pertaining to the choice is displayed.

Choices can be nested to present several sections in sequence.

Or, if that gets too ugly (as it often the case with longer passages), you can use the <<include>> macro to make things a little cleaner.

<hr />
(There ought not be a space between the colons in the passage headers in the following code block, but TweeGo doesn't like it otherwise.)

<table border="1"><tr><td>
{{{
: : Choose Test

You have several choices, in figuring out how this thing works.

<<choose "Continue.">>\
	You'll have to decide, if you want to finish your project.

	<<choose "Figure out how it works.">>\
		<<include "Figure it Out">>
	<<or "Whine and give up.">>\
		<<include "Give Up">>
	<<or "This will never appear" noncanon "false" "Here's some disabled text.">>\
	<</choose>>\
<</choose>>\


: : Figure it Out
You read the documentation, and are enlightened.

This allows you to make your game just great!

Now that you are finished, you realize that choices can be nested.

<<choose "Have a beer.">>\
	That hit the spot!  You win!
<<or "Have some wine.">>\
	Eh, I'd rather have a beer, but to each their own!  You win!
<</choose>>

You lose!
