Using the Note feature

[DrakoShade]

If I want to use the Note feature as a place to assign variables specific to an instance of that class (such as giving an extra stat to individual monsters, or adding a new on-use function to an item), is it as simple as "eval(@note)" somewhere in the initialize method, or do I have to redefine how the note is stored in the first place, to look something like the method in Game_Interpreter for script calls?

Edit:  The Note field in the Enemies tab will hold a maximum of 30,000 characters.

If you're going to use eval() to process CODE in the note tab, then yes it would be that simple.

Thanks, Prexus.  The confirmation helps a lot.

Edit:  Hm...  Although I now know that I can just eval code in the Note box and it will work, I have a feeling that doing so will lead to a crapton of compatibility issues further down the road.  Does anybody have any suggestions as to how that can be avoided?
