default.pl for NPCs without a quest

[Knightly]

I'm confused? What does this do actually? default.pl already works, both by zone, and server wide. (It goes in the root directory of quests, not templates. Never made sense to me, but it works)

D'oh! Teach me to not look before I leap. At any rate, the same rules apply, the default.pl (if it exists) will cause pets to take items as well. So, ignore the code above, but still feel free to answer the question I posed.
