I'm trying to get my head round this at the moment, since it looks as
though Kalyr is the sort of game that might benefit from this.  

I do have some questions (I may just be too dense to understand the
documentation)

Firstly, I assume all commands should be sent to
majordomo@phoenyx.net.  

Secondly, quoting the held page

Does this mean I have have to retrieve the file from the server, or
does catmoves return the file as it's reply?

Also, how does it cope with quoted text, .sig files etc?

And finally, what does defining npcs do?
