	*Network Chat Communication Library for Mods

	*Telepathy ~~is a chat communications library for cross client addon information sharing. It uses SendAddonMessage for "PARTY", "RAID", "GUILD", "BATTLEGROUND" or "WHISPER" communication and a hidden~~ (~~faction/server wide~~) ~~chat channel for "GLOBAL" communication called "GlobalComm".~~

	*Telepathy maintains a user list of everyone in the "GlobalComm" channel, but because other addons also use this standard comm channel it does not mean they are necessarily using Telepathy. Telepathy will automatically join "GlobalComm" after the other channels have loaded if an addon has registered a listener for "GLOBAL". The player can also opt to disable auto-join/leave using "/gcautojoin 0" or "/gcautojoin 1" to enable it again.

	~~==Built-in Slash Commands==~~
	*/gcautojoin 1/0 - Allow (1) or Dissallow (0) auto-joining of a GlobalComm Channel when needed

	~~==Quick Start Example==~~

	~~===Minimal Required Example===~~
	~~Basic Example of a Telepathy command:~~

	~~Telepathy.registerListener("TelepathyTest", "WHISPER",~~
	~~function(msg, sender) Sea.io.printComma("TelepathyTester1: ", msg, sender) end~~
	);

	~~Telepathy.sendMessage("TelepathyTest", "This whisper is invisible!", "WHISPER", UnitName('player'));~~

	~~==User Functions==~~
	* Outbound Messages
	** [[Telepathy.sendMessage\|sendMessage]] - Sends a hidden text message to a specified target or channel.
	** [[Telepathy.sendTable\|sendTable]] - Sends a lua serialized object using Telepathy.
	* Listener Registration
	** [[Telepathy.registerListener\|registerListener]] - Registers a listener which will call a callback function when a message is received.
	** [[Telepathy.unregisterListener\|unregisterListener]] - Unregisters a listener.
	** [[Telepathy.isListener\|isListener]] - Checks if the id/method is already in use.
	* Global Channel Management
	** [[Telepathy.isInGlobalChannel\|isInGlobalChannel]] - Checks if a user (by name) is in the GlobalComm channel
	** [[Telepathy.getCurrentChannelTable\|getCurrentChannelTable]] - Gets an iteratable list of active channels.
	** [[Telepathy.getChannelCount\|getChannelCount]] - Returns the number of channels you are currently in.

	~~==Embedding==~~
	~~To embed Telepathy in your addon:~~
	~~:1) Drop the Telepathy folder in your addon folder~~
	~~:2) Either add the following to your xml file:~~
