prompts

I wrote a built-in some time back, called do_prompt()

Basically, it was called AFTER the players input text was processed, =
even if that text was blank (ie, player pressed <ENTER> only).

Perhaps somebody has it on archive.  I wrote it around the same time as =
the chr() and asc() patches.  If you don't find it, shout and I'll hunt =
it down.

is there any way to set up a prompt *w/o* attatching it to :notify()?  i
was thginking somehow attatching it to $do_command(), but since it's =
called
before the command, it's not very feasible (i dont think)... and
susending/forking it prolly not a good idea either..
