> CHOOSE:TEMPLATE|x|y|y[x]|y[x,x]|x,y,y[x],y[x,x]
> x is a Template PRIMITIVE
> A PRIMITIVE is an identifier of objects, and may include any number of specifications. In the case of Template objects, there are are the three global PRIMITIVES:
> x = an Template (specified by key)
> x = TYPE=w (w is a TYPE identifier for a Template)
> x = !TYPE=w (w is a TYPE identifier for a Template that would be prohibited)
> x = ALL (allow the choice of any Template)
> y is a QUALIFIER.
> A QUALIFIER is a special keyword that identifies a subset of objects that should be returned. Valid qualifiers for Template objects are any of the Global Qualifiers.
> A comma represents "AND", meaning multiple items are evaluated independently and then any item that appears in ALL of the items is added to the list.
> CHOOSE:TEMPLATE|Mindless,Undead
> will result in NO choices because no Template is both Mindless and Undead.
> CHOOSE:TEMPLATE|TYPE=Foo,PC
> would test for any Template that has the Foo type (as defined in the Template LST file) which is ALSO already selected by the PlayerCharacter
> This could also be written (probably more clearly):
> CHOOSE:TEMPLATE|PC[TYPE=Foo]
> A pipe represents "OR", meaning multiple items are evaluated independently and then any item that appears in any of the items is added to the list:
> CHOOSE:TEMPLATE|Mindless|Undead
> will result in a choice between Template Mindless and Template Undead.
> All commas (ANDs) are evaluated before pipes (ORs), so something like:
> CHOOSE:TEMPLATE|Mindless|TYPE=Foo,PC
> would include Mindless unconditionally, in addition to any Template that has the Foo type (as defined in the Template LST file) which is ALSO already selected by the PlayerCharacter
> [edit] Conversion
> None, TEMPLATE is a new Subtoken for CHOOSE
