I'm working on a general resource for this - unfortunately all the
support seems to be on the web-forum which I can't use.

The minimal talent looks something like:

[ADVANTAGES]

<Mundane Mental>
Talent Name, 5/10, gives(+1 To GR:Talent Name), page(), upto(4), cat(Mundane, Mental, Talents),
	conditional(+1 to ST:Reaction), description(list of skills)

[GROUPS]
<Talent Name>
SK:First Skill
SK:Second Skill

and so on. ("GR:Talent Name" and <Talent Name> have to match.)

The major trick is that if you've already generated a character the data
files it's associated with will be stored in that character file, so
you'll need to add the campaign file name to that list.
