I think that not only magic spell, but other commands
( save winpos etc. ) are difficult to remember.
And inputing commands is very bother.
I think zsh-like command expansion may very useful.
For example;
>cast [tab]
-->
fireball *, summon *
-->
>cast s[tab]
-->
>cast summon[tab]
-->
water elemental, air elemental, fire elemenal
>cast summon [tab]
-->
>summon water elemental[tab]
-->
>summon air elemental[return]
>pe[tab]
-->
>peasefull[return]
Of cause, unknown magic spells are not listed.
