It's unclear (to me, at least) exactly what this new variable does, or
how it might be used.
Now that you mention it though, here are a pair I added to my act_new.
They're used at the beginning of a message string where the short of
a mob would be called and needs to be capitalised, as in consider:
if ( diff < -6 ) msg = "$C isn't worth the effort.";

$c Result is the capitalized name of 'ch'. If 'ch' is not visible to the
target character, result is the string 'Someone'.
$C Result is the capitalized name of 'arg2'. If 'arg2' is not visible to
the target character, result is the string 'Someone'.
case 'c': i = capitalize(PERS( ch, to )); break;
case 'C': i = capitalize(PERS( vch, to )); break;
