+# Dialogue
+
+Formspec API to chat with NPCs
+
+```lua
+minetest.register_chatcommand("a", {
+	func = function(name, param)
+		local d = dialogue.new("Hi! I'm the blacksmith. How can I help you?")
+		d:add_option("What do you have for sale?", function(name)
+			print("ans: sale")
+		end)
+		d:add_option("Could you use any help?", function(name)
+			print("ans: ask for quests")
+		end)
+		d:add_option("Nevermind", function(name)
+			print("ans: nevermind")
+		end)
+		d:show(name)
+	end
+})
+```
+
+## Methods
+
+* `dialogue.new(question_text)` - returns dialogue builder (used below as `d` variable)
+	* `d:add_option(answer_text, callback_func)` - adds option to dialogue builder
+	* `d:show(player_name)` - show to player name using dialogue.ask
+	* `callback_func` - called like callback_func(name_of_player_shown_to)
+* `dialogue.ask(name, question, answers)`
+	* Shouldn't be used directly unless you need finer control.
+	* `name`: player to show formspec to
+	* `question`: text, what the NPC said
+	* `answer`: array of objects. `{ { text = "answer", callback = function(name) end } }`
