Could someone fix it so that both forms of use and cast work without target?
So:
use 'push' $*
and use push at $*
can both be used in commands...the at form is a bit more intuitive, but makes
it funky if you want to have a command to start combat and another to use the
skill untargeted, etc...

This is a question of flavor. If you're triggering, you will go for the
aphostrophe version and you will have no problems. If you use commands, you
will use the apostrophe version and you will have no problems. If you are
typing it out, you know what and if you want to target, and won't have a
problem.
Unable to locate the major malfunction.
+++ OUT OF CHEESE ERROR. REDO FROM START +++
PS. the 'at' and aphostropes are used as delimeter in the use command. D.S.

Implemented. What it means is that
use <skill> at $*
now works in commands, even without target. Same for spells.
