Changes since last time

   - No changes are made to the char unless requested

   - Alt key exp points are gone

   - added name changing and epithet changing  

   - added ability to set all 16 values on the stats screen on line

   - removed all switches except -noshow

   - user decides if the auto heal is active online

   - user decides if the auto mana is active online

   - and anything else I forgot to mention   
 

Needs mentioning

   - Only works on 2.3 of the Fot & YS Volcanos (online and box)
     although some parts do work on earlier versions.

   - The "use weapons icon" does DDs on a right click.  It does
     not matter which mode the DDs are in.

   - Tried to arrange keys in an order that I could remember.
     Came up with this idea.  Regular F keys are what you need
     usually, the toggles.  Starting with F9, alphabetically,
     DDs, Heal, Mana, and Search for the character.
   
     The control keys control your attributes (control=control) or 
     do things like give you the control spell.  They start with
     Control F9 also, and are alphabetical, Create items, Name, 
     Spells, and Stats. 

     The other items that are not used much are on the alt keys.
     Alt F12 unloads the TSR.  Alt F10 changes the Epithet (Same
     key as the Change name)  Alt F8 does a memory dump which should 
     never be needed.

     Maybe knowing there is some kind of rhyme to the reason will 
     help folks remember which is what.

   - Can heal yourself and others by left clicking on the TIP-TOP of
     the face.  Heals 1, 2, or 3 times depending if left, middle, or
     right side of face.  (Values are 4, 8, 12 in Yserbius)  Will do
     just one heal, afer asking who to heal, if you click on empty
     face spot. (Same results if clicking tiptop but left of first face?)
     This uses mana.  Good in YS if traveling with others around water,
     as you can heal them without waiting a day or two for them to do it.
     Also good in CD or FunHouse to heal others, especially if you have
     auto mana set.
      
   - Lazy DDs are temporary.  If you leave the volcano, they need to be
     reset on entering.  F9 toggle or F12.

   - F12 should probably be done on your first entrance into the volcano
     just to have it reverify where every thing is.  Definately do it
     when changing from FoT to YS.  It will probably do it all by itself,
     but the key is there anyway.  It will also set auto heal, auto mana,
     and Lazy DDs active.

   - When changing your name/epithet it will not appear changed on your
     face, but if you click on stats it is changed.  Tele out and come
     back in it will show on the face.
    
     I did not do an auto tele on this because many like the "ghost"
     capability in the tavern.  I dont think this ghost thing needs
     to be mentioned in the doc though.

CAUTION on name changing
  
     Changing your name or epithet can cause big troubles if not careful.
     I have had no problems, but choose your name wisely.  You could 
     change your name from "WonderWiz" to "ou" without any problem at all.
     But DO NOT do that.  Why?  Because if you ever want to change your
     new name, "ou", to something else, then everywhere the letters "ou"
     appear in memory will be replaced by your new name.  It is likely
     that the "ou" may not be part of your name at all, maybe a message,
     maybe some code, who knows.  Also, if your new name is longer than
     "ou" then any bytes after that get changed as well which could  
     cause big problems.  Although the portion of memory searched is 
     somewhat small, a problem could occur. 

   - Changing the plus side of the stats is temporary, and needs to 
     be done again once you get back in the volcano.  The left side
     may also get lowered as well.  Health and Mana may be reset to
     normal maxes as well.

   - If autoheal is on, changing the left side of your health will
     appear not to work.  This is because the autoheal sets the left
     side to be the same as the right side many times a second.  You
     would have to be pretty quick to see the change.  Similar story
     with automana as well.

   - There is some logic built in to try to keep the dex under 3200 
     and the total of the dex and dex plus under 4100.  This is to
     prevent the negative hits that send you to dos if the total is
     higher.  However, you can get a larger total if you are naked
     and set your dex to the max, then put on your shield, helmut,
     etc.  You will get sent to DOS eventually if this is done.
     So please, keep all of your clothes on, afterall, this is a 
     family BBS. 

  -  Adding the switch -noshow after the name, as in
         VITAMINF -noshow
     causes the opening screen to be bypassed.  Handy if loading
     this high or from a bat file.

  -  When trying to use Lazy DDs for the first time, you must have
     the DDs spell.  You also must have enough mana to use them.

   - Spells 99 and and 98 should be documented

   - Stats 9 and stats 8 should be documented

   - Escape cancels any of the get some info from the user prompts.
     Actually, alot of other keys will cancel it as well.

   - While there is some error checking done, you can confuse things
     fairly easily.  Normal use should be fine, but it's your problem
     if you try to break it by trying things like setting your defense
     to ABC.


F9 - Toggle DDs

Toggles DDs between normal and lazy mode.  In lazy mode, level 12 DDs
do just over 32,000 damage.  If you are in a party, do not have lazy
DDs activated unless everyone else in the party does as well.  If 
you are travelling with one that does not have lazy DDs, but you do, 
and he uses normal DDs, he will do 32K damage on your screen 
(killing all) but only normal damage on his screen.  You will be out 
of battle on your screen, but in battle on his.  If this happens, 
leave the party, reset to normal DDs, and join after the battle is 
over.


F10 - Toggle AutoHeal

Keeps you completely healthy when not in battle.


F11 - Toggle AutoMana
 
Keeps your mana full all of the time, even if in battle.


F12 - Search out character 

This searches for your character.  This lets the macro know where
everything is.  Always do it the very first thing when switching 
between YS and FoT so the macro isn't confused.  


Control F9 - Create an item

This creates any one of the many items you may need while questing.
If you need the skeleton key, look it up in the FOTITEMS file to get 
the number 208, press F9, key in 208 and press enter.  If you need 
to correct a digit, the backspace will do that.  


Control F10 - Name Change

Allows your name to be changed.


Control F11 - Spells

Allows setting of spells and skills.  You are prompted for the number
of the spell or skill you want and then the level you want it set to.
The spells are numbers 1-24 and the skills are 25-48.  They are
counted by starting at the top of the first column, going down, then
over to the next column.  The values range from 0-12.  Zero means to
remove it, and 1-12 is the strength of it.


Control F12 - Stats

Can set any of the 16 stats on the stat screen.  It will ask which one
you want to change.  Enter the first letter of the stat you want to 
change, unless it is dex, then use x.  To change the right side of 
a stat, enter in a second letter as well.  It doesn't matter what
the second letter is.  After you press enter it will ask you for
the value you want to set it to.

So to set your defense to 22, type d and press enter, then type 22 and 
press enter.  To set your maximum mana (right side) to 25000, type mm and 
press enter, then 25000 and press enter.
Only use lower case letters.
   


Alt F8 - Dump the memory

Don't do this unless asked to by me.  It will just use up your disk 
space at best, or cause you to reboot.



Alt F10 - Epithet Change

Changes the epithet


Alt F11 - Unload

Only do this when back to DOS.  If probably won't cause any problems
if done accidently on line.  It will unload the macro from memory,
returning the F-Keys to the normal values and freeing memory.
