author_file(4)           Driver Applies            author_file(4)

NAME
     author_file - determine the author for a given object

SYNOPSIS
     string author_file (string file);

DESCRIPTION
     This function must exist in the master object.  It is called
     by the author statistic functions in the driver to determine
     what author a given object should be associated with.   This
     is  totally arbitrary and up to the mudlib designers wishes.
     It should be noted  that  the  author  that  the  object  is
     assigned  to  will  receive  "credit" for all of the objects
     behavior (errors, heart_beats, worth, etc).
