I just found out despite the in game help file being not complete that some spells are actually ranged. Now the help files for Chain Lightning, Cone of Cold for instances doesn't have the syntax part like most ranged spells do. Can spells that are actually ranged have their help files updated?

Helpful help files:

also the last word in the fireball help file is spelled wrong: approaching is the correct spelling.

Code:
Syntax: cast fireball <victim>
        cast fireball <direction> <victim>

Fireball is an awesome conjuring of the elemental fire.  Through this,
the warlock sends fire into the center of an area, causing it to violently
explode, engulfing everyone within its range, including the warlock
himself.  The warlock may also send the fireball into a group of targets
while they are still approching.

[code][Spells help] call lightning

Syntax: cast 'call lightning' <enemy>

Call lightning brings forth a hail of lightning bolts on an
enemy group.  While the spell can be used in any weather, it is more
powerful when it can call down lightning bolts from a storm.  The
ideal conditions for calling lightning are when it is raining hard,
warm and very windy.  The spell only works outdoors.

[Spells help] Damage Spells

Syntax: cast 'cone of cold' <victim>

Cone of cold is another of the elemental spells at the command of a well-
learned warlock.  This allows the warlock to channel the cold of elemental
ice at her victim, causing a great deal of pain and damage.

Well Call lightening is not a ranged spell, so the help file would be.

[Spells help] chain lightning'

Syntax: cast 'chain lightning'

Chain lightning is a useful spell to a solitary warlock surrounded by
enemies, but any warlock accompanied by allies should be careful in casting
this, lest his friends take more damage than those he intended to harm.

Call lightning is a ranged spell. It has 1 room of range in indoor areas. So do Cone of Cold and Chain Lightning.
