README! New command: characters

Alpha release (only available from "alphabot@phoenyx.net", running the
pre-release version of Firehawk):

CHARACTERS

What It Does

Certain subscribers can be designated as "players," by assigning them a character.

This command also sets the languages the character speaks, for use by pbemtools.

How to Use It

"characters groupname" will return the current list of characters, in the format:

>>>> char testlist
Characters:
  bob - bob@phoenyx.net
    Last posted: N/A

  silver - silver@phoenyx.net

"character groupname character name" will return the same thing, for one character only.

"character groupname character name address language (language..." will set up a new character, or override an existing one.

If a player leaves, the special address "npc" should be used to override the setting.

The command can be abbreviated to the shortest possible unique setting - at present, "CH". Anything shorter than "CHAR" is deprecated, however.
