EXAMPLE BUTTON-PUSH PROGRAM FROM JEREMIE

function color { led.setrgb(r,g,b); };                                              // The function to set the LED to a color

function rotate { r = random(255); g = random(255); b = random(255); color; };      // The function to generate a color and set the LED to it

function startup { pin.makeinputup(2); run rotate,1000; };                          // On startup, make digital pin 2 a button. Set the LED to a random color once a second.

function event.button2 { stop *; color; led.gethex("happy"); };                     // When button is pushed, stop everything. Set the LED to a random color. Get the current LED color and feed it into function "happy".

function happy { print arg(1):s; mesh.announce(1,arg(1)); };                        // Print the hex value just gathered. Send it out to group 1.

function event.group1 { print arg(1):s; led.sethex(arg(1)); };                      // When you get a message for group 1, print the message (i.e., the hex color value). Set the LED to that hex value.

So, basically: when the button is pushed on any Scout, set it to a randomly-generated color, then send it out to all the other Scouts, which sets their LEDs to the same color.
