+// This is my update system.  It is extremely simple to use.  Just pass the URL
+// where the version information can be obtained.  The version information will
+// be loaded in the background and a dialog will show up presenting the user
+// with the results of the check.  If userRequested is NO, then the system will
+// not do anything if an error occured or if there is no available update.
+// Depending on the tags given in the version file, the presented dialog can
+// have buttons which link to a "more info" page or a direct download, using the
+// default web browser of the system.
+
+
+// url can either be an NSURL or an NSString containing a valid URL.
+void ChazCheckForUpdate( id url, BOOL userRequested ); // uses default app name.
+void ChazCheckForUpdateWithName( id url, NSString *appName, BOOL userRequested );
+
+// these return empty strings if they can't be determined.
+NSString *ChazAppName(); // returns the name ChazCheckForUpdate() uses.
+NSString *ChazAppVersion(); // returns the current version of the app.
+NSDate *ChazAppBuildDate(); // returns the build date used to check for updates.
