snoop(3)              LPC Library Functions              snoop(3)

NAME
     snoop() - snoop an interactive user

SYNOPSIS
     varargs object snoop( object snooper, object snoopee );

DESCRIPTION
     When both arguments are used, begins snooping  of  `snoopee'
     by  `snooper'.  If the second argument is omitted, turns off
     all snooping by `snoopee'.  Security for snoop() is normally
     controlled  by  a  simul_efun.  snoop() returns `snoopee' if
     successful in the two-argument case, and `snooper' if it was
     successful in the single-argument case.  A return of 0 indi-
     cates failure.
