+The various magic scripts pack their status into these variables.
+Locally, they use `@Q_status' to maintain the state, and use a function
+`S_update_var' to update it. This is all re-using the same code, setting
+the `@Q_MASK' and `@Q_SHIFT' variables appropriately.
+
+ There are a few exceptions (such as the Kadiya quest) wherein
+a separate helper function sets a dedicated local variable, or some hackery
+in Auldsbel wherein we read stati directly, merely to enable certain options. \ No newline at end of file
