Ahh...  I had no idea where that code came from. <G>

It sounds like a great idea -- perhaps Lancelight would be willing to build upon the work he's already done for askill to allow us to do the same.

Thanks.  Wait till you see some of the neat stuff we're planning for 0.9.44.  Be sure to join the mailing list if you haven't already ( the directions for joining are on http://weasle.embermud.cx/~embermud I believe - if not, let me know at zak@embermud.cx ).  90% of the discussion regarding new features and code changes happen on that list.
