SYNOPSIS

object find_living(string str)

DESCRIPTION

Find the first "living" object in the table of livings, that has str as living name, set with set_living_name(). The the object to search for must also have called enable_commands(). There is a special hash table that speeds up the search for such living objects (thus you cannot rely on the order of livings, if there are more than one with the same name).

EXAMPLE

	object ob;
	ob = find_living("Public Enenemy");

HISTORY

Since 3.2.1@40, this is a simulated efun. The handling of living names is no longer part of the driver.

SEE ALSO
