-Caveat: Currently it will assert if you try to use more than 4 variables in a single VariantList. For speed, I don't dynamically allocate them as needed.  It's a simple define to raise that limit though.+Caveat: Currently it will assert if you try to use more than 6 variables in a single VariantList.

 In this way, you can sort of create labels that can be triggered easily, and these triggers can activate real functions that have been attached to them. In this way, you can sort of create labels that can be triggered easily, and these triggers can activate real functions that have been attached to them.
