This plugin provides commands that clean the splatter that get scattered all
over the map and that clings to your items and units. In an old fortress,
cleaning with this tool can significantly reduce FPS lag! It can also spoil your
!!FUN!!, so think before you use it.

Usage::

    clean all|map|items|units|plants [<options>]
    spotclean

By default, cleaning the map leaves mud and snow alone. Note that cleaning units
includes hostiles, and that cleaning items removes poisons from weapons.

``spotclean`` works like ``clean map snow mud``, removing all contaminants from
the tile under the cursor. This is ideal if you just want to clean a specific
tile but don't want the `clean` command to remove all the glorious blood from
your entranceway.

Examples
--------

``clean all``
    Clean everything that can be cleaned (except mud and snow).
``clean all mud item snow``
    Removes all spatter, including mud, leaves, and snow from map tiles.

Options
-------

When cleaning the map, you can specify extra options for extra cleaning:

``mud``
    Also remove mud.
``item``
    Also remove item spatter, like fallen leaves and flowers.
``snow``
    Also remove snow coverings.
