AI: How to use custom skills????

Hi.
Does anyone know a method of making Ai use custom skills . What I mean is something akin to:
Unit-Issue An Order Targeting A Point.
If there is any method of doing this i would be eternally grateful if you told me. Code, Trigger, JASS whatever?! I need to know.

NOTE: I could make items but my map has over 60 skill x 4 levels = 240 variations :evil:

Well the answer is quite easy, but will not be satisfying to you:

I think you do know how to make a unit cast an existing skill targeting a point. You know that EVERY skill in wc3 is made out of another, existing skill. So if you want to make a unit cast a customized skill, you will need to make it cast the original skill.

This should work fine, but if you have i.e. three different types of blizzard in one unit, wc3 won't make any difference between them and may lead to weird results. [you may encounter this problem too when trying to differ between abilities cast with the trigger editor]

There is a way to make new skills, but i dont know how to do it. I think its a special editor. To get an AI unit to cast these, u simply load them to editor and make it use that skill. U must give it the ability 1st
