Here's your problem.... what's arg? it was never assigned. Specprocs get
'argument' passed to them. add:
one_argument(argument, arg);
right after:
int class;
that takes argument and finds the one argument you entered, and puts it in
arg. I'm sure you know that already (maybe not...) but for the newbies
reading this who DESERVE some help, it's nice to tell them.
That else if switch was checking arg, which was probably whatever it was
that was assigned to arg sometime earlier in the code. Try this... type kick
mage, it'll say that's nowhere to be seen or something, then type: level
crap. Or level <whatever>. I bet it does level mage. Then again I cioul;d be
completely wrong, because arg might get reassigned somewhere else but
whatever, that's what your problem was.
