Make A Lesser Powers grant XP?

[LiLKing]

Im making a mod with spells that ive made into lesser powers that cost magicka and work with perks. The only real difference between these lesser powers and spells is the equip slot. Unfortunatly even if they cost magicka the spells/lesser powers still wont grant skill xp. I was wondering if anyone out there would know of a way to fix this so it does. I would really apreceate any help on this as its really put a damper on what i consider to be a great idea.

Lesser power, greater power and shouts by default will never yield exp no matter what you do. The only solution is to attach a script to the magic effect the lesser power uses, the script would advance caster skill exp whenever the magic effect successfully applies. Of course, the drawback is that the exp gain is static and can not be modified by standing stone (unless you script them to do so)

Scripting is not easily learned but scripting for your specific purpose is actually pretty simple. I feel it's a little bit unfortunate that you give up now because it could be a good start but it's your choice. Don't hesitate to ask if you change your mind.

I'm not giving up, I'm just dealing with a rough patch. if you know how i could learn and accomplish such a thing by all means I'm open to suggestions.
