        class: userMessage
        ----------------------
        This is an example to demonstrate the usages of the MUserEventMessage class.
        It allows the user to create, destroy, and post to user-defined events
        identified by strings.

        The command "userMessage" supports the following options:

                -r/-register string : Register a new event type with the given name.
                        Registration also attaches two callback functions to the event,
                        userCallback1 and userCallback2.

                -d/-deregister string : Deregister an existing event with the given name

                -p/-post string : Post the event.  In this case, it simply notifies
                        userCallback1 and userCallback2, which print info messages.

                -t/-test : Run a basic set of tests that demonstrate how the user event
                        types can be used.  See userMessage::runTests()

        Only one option should be specified per invokation.
