// Description	: This library provides a set of functions needed to send and
//		receive STX/ETX packets.  STX/ETX is a simple packet protocol that can
//		be wrapped around user data for one or more of the following reasons:
//
//			1. packetization is needed
//				- Using packets can be helpful if your data naturally forms 
//				little "bunches" or if different types of data must be sent
//				over the same channel (a serial cable, for example).  If your
//				data forms "bunches", you can send user data inside STX/ETX
//				packets with a predetermined structure, like an array of A/D
//				conversion results.  If you need a way to tell the receiver
//				what kind of data you're sending, you can use the TYPE field
//				in the STX/ETX packet.
//			2. error checking is needed
//				- STX/ETX packets will add a checksum to your data.  This
//				allows the receiver to verify that data was received correctly
//				and is error-free.  Packets which are corrupted in transmission
//				and fail the the checksum test are automatically discarded.
//				Error checking is especially useful when the data transmission
//				channel is unreliable or noisy (examples: radio, infrared, long
//				cables, etc)
//	
//		STX/ETX packets have the following structure:
//
//		[STX][status][type][length][user data...][checksum][ETX]
//
//		All fields are 1 byte except for user data which may be 0-255 bytes.
//		Uppercase fields are constant (STX=0x02, ETX=0x03), lowercase fields
//		vary.  The length field is the number of bytes in the user data area.
//		The checksum is the 8-bit sum of all bytes between but not including
//		STX/ETX.
