 ## Todos
 
  - Update the examples
+ - Add multithrottle examples
+ - Finish the in-code documentation 
  - Write Tests
- - More complete WiThrottle protocol parsing
  - Better Parser (Antlr?)
 
+ ## Usage Notes
+
+ - When I added the multithrottle support I have done my best to maintain backwards compatibility.  As a result if you use the non-multithrottle versions of any of the methods, the *default* multithrottle is now defunct 'T' rather than the now standard '0'.<br/>That means that you ***cannot mix*** multithrottle and non-multithrottle versions of the methods in your code.
