* Added a new member to the Vendor datatype "Item". This new member will now
allow you to access merchandise and consignment datatypes without having to
know if your target is a merchant or a broker. For example, previously you
would have used "echo ${Vendor.Merchant[candle].Price}" ...now, you can
simply use "echo ${Vendor.Item[candle].Price}" ..and isxeq2 will automatically
decide if what you have targetted is a merchant or a broker and act accordingly.
(I have left the old members in, so your old scripts should still work as they
always have.)

* Added a new TLO called "Vendor". It returns a 'vendor' object type. Please note that
the Vendor TLO will not work unless you have the vendor actor targeted. This TLO will
work for any NPC merchants, in-room PC merchants, and Brokers!
* Added a new Datatype called "vendor".
~ Added the following new MEMBERS to the "vendor" datatype:
- NumItemsForSale (int type) [Brokers will always return the number of items on the page (ie, 8)]
- Commission (float type, in percent) [Non-Brokers will be zero.]
- CurrentSearchPage (int type) [Only works for brokers]
- TotalSearchPages (int type) [Only works for brokers]
- IsBroker (bool type)
- IsMerchant (bool type)
~ Added the following new METHODS to the "vendor" datatype:
- GotoSearchPage[#] [Only works for brokers]
* Added a new Datatype called "merchandise".
~ Added the following new MEMBERS to the "merchandise" datatype:
- Name (string type)
- Price (float type) (in silver pieces)
- PriceString (string type) (format: %dp,%dg,%ds,%dc...if StatusCost>0 then %dSP,%dp,%dg,%ds,%dc)
- StatusCost (int type)
- Quantity (int type) (Note: merchandise on NPC vendors will always have MaxQuantity
on them since their stock is unlimited.)
- MaxQuantity (int type) [returns 1 for items that are non stackable]
- IsForSale (bool type) [returns FALSE if the "not for sale" checkbox/flag is selected]
~ Added the following new METHODS to the "merchandise" datatype:
- Buy[<quantity>] (If no quantity is given, then buys 1.
Quantity only works for items that are stackable.
If you try to buy more than MaxQuantity, Quantity will default to MaxQuantity.)
- Sell[<quantity>] (If no quantity is given, then it sells the Quantity of that stack (or 1 if nonstackable.
This method is typically used via Me.Merchandise[]
If you try sell more than the current quantity of that stack, "Quantity" will default
to the current quantity of the stack.)
