Hey, That was quick this is a great script!!

Unfortunately, I had forgotten about one detail... the status menu has a limit of how many skills are shown!

Perhaps it would be better to display a full window covering the entire status menu in order to show every skill the actor has learned, or maybe being able to scroll that very same skill window with the arrow keys...!

I hope this is not too much work for you. This script is indeed amazing!!
