Before you can cast a spell you must memorize it...


>memorize ......

to cast it use

>(spell name) (object to cast spell on if necessary)

>memorize frotz

"...you commit the spell to memory..."

>frotz coin

"...the coin glows brightly and can now be used as a light source..."

etc...


Also there are actually 56 points available out of 51...  At least
that's what my score was when I finished...


Later
