      Using inventory this way is really good IMHO we just need to fix up a lot of

      We need a better way to add inventory items (even multiple items) to arches

  Arguably, this is really just a matter of DM commands.

  For example, the create command already understands the 'of' syntax.  But for 
some objects, like perhaps spellbooks, scrolls, potions, etc, in addition for it 
looking for 'of' items as being artifacts, it should see if the 'of' portion 
represents a spell.  Thus, something like 'create wand of large fireball', would 
all work.

  But the DM commands have never been really well done/supported (there are many 
ways for a dm to crash a server unintentionally with dm commands).
