SYNOPSIS

object to_object(string arg)
object to_object(closure arg)
object to_object(object arg)

DESCRIPTION

The argument is converted into an object, if possible. For strings, the object with a matching file_name() is returned, or 0 if there is none, as find_object() does. For (bound!) closures, the object holding the closure is returned. Objects and the number 0 return themselves.
