Getcharid;

Description

This function will return a unique ID number of the invoking character, or, if
a character name is specified, of that character.

For most purposes other than printing it, a number is better to have than a
name (people do horrifying things to their character names).

If the character is not in a party or not in a guild, the function will return
0 if guild or party number is requested. If a name is specified and the
character is not found, 0 is returned.

If Getcharid returns a zero, the script got called not by a character
and doesn't have an attached [RID]. Note that this will cause the map server
to print "player not attached!" error messages, so it is preferred to use
[[playerattached]]' to check for the character attached to the script.
