Identify (Minor) Spell [by Soren P. Skou]

From: "Soren P. Skou" <serces@MUD.DK>
Subject: Minor Identify

Here's a little spell.. Hope you can use it..

It's a minor Id, so Instead of Giving you all the information
"Affects you: DEX +2" and so on, then You can give out this spell
lower than the normal Identify (I have both, one at lvl 100 and one
at lvl 30).. It won't give amount's just tells the caster what it
might affect. In case it won't affect anything, it tells the caster
what it's worth. (In money_desc)

If you use it, please send me a mail, if you have any suggestions to
changes please let me know as well.. :)
