May want to make a note somewhere that if ApplySpellRES is added to the action.ids in IWD+HOW+TOTL that it will function as advertised in BG2

The IESDP already says so. It is #160. http://iesdp.gibberlings3.net/scripting/actions/totlactions.htm
That's what led me to try it out, but there is nothing in the IESDP that says you must add it into the action.ids file.  The way it reads it is assumed to already be within the file.  That's why there should be a note about adding it...

After some trial and error I found out that if I add the ApplySpellRES action from BG2 into IWD+HOW+TOTL that it will indeed work.  So I can use custom names with my prefix now.

First off, I've got IWD + HOW + TOTLM.  I've got a whole slew of mods, but I'll be removing them so that I can work with a clean install.

I wish to add a spell and use it in a script.  It won't be displayed in any of the spell books so I don't need to give it a name or a description.  I've already created the spell.  What I want to know is since there is no ApplySpellRES in IWD+HOW+TOTLM must I name the spell along the lines of spinXXX.spl (where XXX is a number) or can I name it whatever I want with my prefeix (such as abXXX.spl)?  Also, if I use my own name how will the game match up my spell with the added entry in the spells.ids file?  Any suggestions or ideas?

Currently, the spell works and is saved as spin200.spl as that was a non-existing spell and 3200 was an unused value in the IDS file.
