+//::///////////////////////////////////////////////
+//::
+//:: Custom Literature Script
+//:: By James Upp (Merle)
+//:: jservey@clemson.edu
+//:: October 21, 2002
+//::
+//:: Based on the original random treasure script
+//:: by Brent of BioWare
+//::
+//:: To use:
+//:: Make sure that all custom books that you want
+//:: to appear follow the same resref naming
+//:: convention of "custombook###" where ### is a
+//:: three-digit number. Since you can't change the
+//:: resref of an item after it's creation, you
+//:: will need to give your custom books the
+//:: name "custombook###" when you first create
+//:: them, and then modify the name of the book
+//:: in the Item Editor later.
+//::
+//:: To set the number of random books, change the
+//:: nNumBooks.
+//::
+//:: Make sure this script rests on both the
+//:: OnDeath and OnOpen scripts for your bookshelves
+//:: and book piles. This shouldn't be a problem
+//:: if you are using the custom erfs. If you are
+//:: not using the custom erfs, it would be best
+//:: to create custom placeables of your own, by
+//:: copying the standard bookshelves and book
+//:: pile and then changing the script, and then
+//:: adding them to the custom palette.
