Default

Can you give an example of using the script? Also, how do you disable using this so it continues to use the normal spells file? From reading the changelog, it sounds like it is supposed to use this table by default. I am guessing that means it will ignore the spells file unless you disable this feature? Or, will it use the spells file if it can't find the table?

BTW, your code box in your export script post says "import", not "export" for usage.

So, to import spells into the database, I would do this?:

Code:
/utils/import_spells.pl -c /home/eqemu/server/eqemu_config.xml -s /home/eqemu/server/spells_us.txt -t spells_new -d
And to export the table, I would do this?:

Code:
/utils/export_spells.pl -c /home/eqemu/server/eqemu_config.xml -t spells_new -s /home/eqemu/server/spells_us.txt
EDIT: Just tried to run this, but I haven't ran a .pl file before and it doesn't seem to run just from a terminal window. Is there something else I need to do to run it?
