hmm.....

this is right off the top of my head..so it will need checked

in do_set, add your name info to the array..we'll say its the 51st
element
also define a char new_name[MAX_NAME_LENGTH] variable..
case '50' :
  if (_parse_name(val_arg, new_name) || !valid_name(new_name) ||
       reserved_word(new_name) || fill_word(new_name) ||
       strlen(new_name) < 2 || strlen(new_name) > MAX_NAME_LENGTH-1) {
    send_to_charf(ch, "Sorry, %s is not a valid name. Try again.\n\r",
new_name);
    break;
  }

  for(value = 1 to top_of_p_table) {
    if(!str_cmp(player_table[value].name, GET_NAME(vict)) {
      send_to_charf(ch, "Okay, %s has been renamed to %s.\n\r",
        GET_NAME(vict), new_name);
      strcpy(player_table[value].name, new_name);
      strcpy(GET_NAME(vict), new_name);
      break;
    }
  }
  //dont think we'll EVER get here, but just in case.
  send_to_charf(ch, "UH OH. Couldn't find %s in the player table.
Contact the coding team.\n\r",
     GET_NAME(vict));
  break;
