Is it possible to make casting a skill instead of a command? This will prevent warriors and non-casting types from allowing them to use cast. Also, I plan on making the bard casting skill 'sing' and not cast, but it will use the same code.

You could always just check the character's class in the command and deny access if you want, without changing cast into a skill.

Also, you can create a new command called 'sing', that just happens to share the same code (do_cast) as cast. You don't need to create a new function.
