Actually, this is a rather novel idea. I'm not sure of what use it
would be, but it is kinda neat - you're not going to find this in the
code. Here is my suggestion:
Get, and implement the event snippet. Its not fully functional if
I remember from before, but it is very close. Something about requiring
conf.h or comm.h or something....
Then, simply have the spell create an event which removes the
spell from the player timed for 3 seconds. Pretty easy. For the spell
itself, just duplicate the "Snoop" code.
