Summary: SPECIALTYKNOWN tag entry incorrect

Initial Comment:
[BUG] [DOC]
Version 5.7.8 

In the Docs it states:
(Snip)

"What it does:
Adds the numeric value given to the number of specialty school 
spells know by the spell caster, if not listed, the default value is 0
Example:
SPECIALTYKNOWN:1,1,1
The class knows 1 0th level specialty spells, 2 1st level specialty 
spells and 1 3rd level specialty spells.

(Snip)

Per the SRD - Basic Character Classes II (Paladin through 
Multiclassed Characters, the Example is wrong.

(Snip)

The specialist can prepare one additional spell (of the school 
selected as a specialty) per spell level each day.

(Snip)

I believe that it should state something like: 

"What it does:
Adds the numeric value given to the number of specialty school 
spells that the class can cast per spell level.  If not listed, the 
default value is 0

Example:
SPECIALTYKNOWN:1
The specialist can prepare one additional spell (of the school 
selected as a specialty) per spell level each day." 

As it is documented it crashes on loading a class file that has it 
coded this way.

In addition, if you enter on a sub class file "SPECIALTYKNOWN:2", 
the program shows it on the character as having  +1 and not as a 
+2.

[FREQ]

Would it be possible to have this tag work with other values 
besides the standard +1?
