Yes, but most events don't work on PCs.

ah. why's that? is the signal dropped somewhere along the way, or are the events just not generated for pc's? |

| If this doesn't work, you can use the spellhook script and just have it check whether the target is a PC, if so, have it execute your script. |

yah, already tried that, actually. i'm trying to hook an event which doesn't seem to pass by the spellhook: the healing kit 'spell'. it definitely signals onspellcastat() cuz i can catch it for npc's, but it seems to be a little trickier for pc's.
thx for the suggestion tho.  |

Hrm... Neat. I figured you would need a custom hook for this. |

Healing kit behavior is hardcoded, and there's currently no way to override it via script. It does trigger the spell cast event, but that particular spell ID just invokes the hardcode function (more or less -- I haven't actually looked at that part of the code, but I know it can't be overridden from script).
Win32 nwnx_fixes allows you to tweak a couple elements of healing kit behavior. I forget if I ever ported that to Linux.
