This is fairly simple, just look around your code for the do_gain
function or somewhere that advances levels auto.  And the argument that
they should be able to auto immort or have to be advanced manually is a
good one.  On one hand you might not want to allow for such power as
goto and other things like that automatically.  Besides just allowing
them to not auto-immort, is add a grant command that would allow the
IMPs to grant any IMMO command to any IMMORTAL and not to the entire
level of that immort.  Just a thought/idea.
