// This is provided AS IS without support.  Please don't bug me demanding 
// help or custom work for this free script.
 
// Summary: This is a simple prim animation script.  Just add this script
// to your object and a dialog will automatically pop up for you to use.
 
// Features:
// -Single script "Prim Puppeteer" like animation tool
// -Playback controllable through external scripts
// -Animation is scalable and resizeable
// -On-touch trigger built-in
// -Completely free and open sourced 
 
// License:
// You are welcome to use this anyway you like, even bring to other grids
// outside of Second Life.  If you try to sell what I'm giving away for
// free, you will be cursed with unimaginably bad juju.
