--- IMPORTANT:
--- If you prefer to use buddyMenu xtra (which is buggy, but free) over OSControl xtra (you need a license to use it in authoring)
--- simply replace the OSControl menu member with another member. You can use the member "OSControlReplacement".
--- Select sprite 2 and 3 in the score window, then select member "OSControlReplacement" in the cast window and select:
--- "Edit -> Exchange Cast Members" (or press Cmd + E).
--- You can delete the OSControl member "oscontrolMenu" afterwards.
--- From that time on the buddyMenu xtra is used to draw the menu instead of the OSControl xtra.
--- the only difference in the script is in script "OSCmenu_Utilities" and "OSCmenu_Handlers":
--- if sprite(me.spritenum).member.type = #OSmenu then ...

+-- DESCRIPTION:
+--              Main movie script of this movie, with the standard moviescript handlers like:
+--              startMovie, stopmovie, closeWindow and idle
+--
+-- REQUIRES:
+--              script "aleXtrasMovieScript" as provider for library scripts -> xscr()
+--              script "commonMovieScript" -- standard handlers
+--              script "GetSetPrefs" -- read and write preferences
+--
+-- WARNINGS:
+--              IMPORTANT NOTES:
+--              This movie uses the sleep method on idle in order to prevent CPU hogging
+--              by a movie, which is supposed ti run all the time
+--              This means, that on mac, you will sleep one tick on idle, while on PC it is only a millisecond
+--              While that keeps the CPU usage low, the main movie won't run at "full speed"
+--              So in order to test the speed of the main movie close this MIAW tool!
+--              
+--              which xtra to use for the menu?
+--              If you prefer to use buddyMenu xtra (which is buggy, but free) over OSControl xtra
+--              (you need a license to use it in authoring)
+--              simply replace the OSControl menu member with another member.
+--              You can use the member "OSControlReplacement".
+--              Select sprite 2 and 3 in the score window, then select
+--              member "OSControlReplacement" in the cast window and select:
+--              "Edit -> Exchange Cast Members" (or press Cmd + E).
+--              You can delete the OSControl member "oscontrolMenu" afterwards.
+--              From that time on the buddyMenu xtra is used to draw the menu instead of the OSControl xtra.
