Heh, I was talking about both --pam and the following options to cast:
-R, --recast-down
recasts all the spells the given spell(s) depend on (and the ones they
depend on ...). This might be quite a lot of spells.
-B, --recast-up
recasts all the spells that depend on the given spell(s) (and the ones
they depend on ...).
-O, --recast-optional [option]
If a spell being built has spells which could optionally depend on it,
but those dependencies are disabled, ask to recast the dependee. Option can be
one of: "always", "ask-yes", "ask-no", or "ignore"; it defaults to what is
set via the sorcery menu.
But to be honest, I think common sense and cleanse are enough to keep a box
working. IMHO sorcery should only act on the SA's behalf in cases like
pam, as that can break a box to the point where one can't login to repair the
damage.
