31// if you ask the same question in a loop, it is recommended to use AW_repeated_question
32// to avoid asking the same question again and again.
33//
34// Usage : 1. Create a new instance of AW_repeated_question outside the loop
35//         2. call get_answer() inside the loop
36
37// The second way to get rid of unwanted questions is by using a 'unique_id'
38// - if unique_id is set, a toggle "Never ask me again" will be added to the question-popup.
39// - if unique_id is NULL, no such toggle will appear (i.e. the popup can NOT be suppressed!)
40// The latter is recommended
41// - whenever the buttons get generated dynamically
42// - when not asking is REALLY dangerous
43//
44// Whenever you change the meaning of a question, it is mandatory that you change the unique_id!!!
