clone_object
NAME
clone_object - clone an object
SYNOPSIS
object clone_object(object master)
DESCRIPTION
Create a clone of the specified object with an unique name of the form
"object_name#1234". The cloned object
must not itself be a clone. The new object is returned. The creator
function will be called in the cloned object immediately.
ERRORS
If the number of existing objects is equal to the value of the
ST_OTABSIZE field of the array returned
by status(), where
ST_OTABSIZE is defined in the include file
<status.h>, attempting to clone a
new object will crash the system.
