[TriEmbed] Anybody using this with C?

[Scott Hall]

Google ProtoBuf is what I use in my projects, and what was used at a former 
employer who was serializing data onto RS422/485, I^2 C and Zigbee.  It is more 
frugal but still allows small binary objects to be transmitted -- like screen 
display widgets or icons -- at a reasonable speed.
