[KnyteTrypper]

This code is a template for a method of writing client predicates to permanent AIML files, which will allow a Pandorabot to "remember" personal information about AIM clients. All the tags in this document except <id/> are AIML 1.01 compliant, so it should be adaptable to other ALICE implementations with online capabilities, such as Program D.
