+#X text 19 36 You can use [choice] to choose interactively between
+a number of behaviors depending on their attributes. For example \,
+you might have stored a number of melodies \, of which some are syncopated
+\, some chromatic \, some are more than 100 years old \, some are bugle
+calls \, and some are Christmas carols. You could then ask to find
+a syncopated bugle call (1 \, 0 \, 0 \, 1 \, 0) and you'll get the
+thing most closely matching the request.;
