Envelope weight map copy/projection...

Hi,



           Does anybody know of a script (or a function that I can't seem
to find) that will allow me to essentially copy the envelope weight map of
one object, to another object.  For instance, I have a character who is
fully enveloped with a bunch of custom weight painting.  Now I have various
sorts of "clothing" like belts, boots, tight clothing which I now have to
weight paint to match the body under it. what a pain.



           It would be cool if I could "copy" (or more accurately
"project") the weight map from my character's body onto the accessories that
are being worn.



           I guess if there isn't anything like this, I may have to break
out the C++. but before I do that I thought I'd ask.



Thanks for any info!



Chris Peltz...
