I know this is a really old post - had a similar problem so just thought I'd reply for other people who struggle with a similar thing.

I created a button on my shelf where you can enter a parm name and it kicks out the parm as code - which is a massive help.

This is what is kicks out for an example two button strip.

<hou.MenuParmTemplate name='slapcomp_switcher' label='Slapcomp switcher' menu_items'0', '1') menu_labels' Template Slapcomp ', ' Shot Slapcomp ') default_value=0 tags={ "export_disable" : "1", "script_
callback" : "exec(hou.parm("set_template").eval() )", "script_callback_language" : "python", } is_button_strip=1 strip_uses_icons=0>
