INFO
	inheritance - the ineritance mechanism

DESCRIPTION
	An object can inherit all variables and functions from another object.
	This is done with the declaration 'inherit "file";'. This must come
	before any local variables or functions.

EXAMPLE
	Defining a monster:

	inherit "std/simple_monster";

	reset(arg) {
	  ::reset(arg);
	  set_name("troll");
	  set_level(9);
	  set_hp(100);
	  set_wc(12);
	  set_al(-60);
	  set_short("A troll");
	  set_long("It is a nasty troll that looks very aggressive.\n");
	  set_aggressive(1);
	}

	As always, refer to the inherited file to see the functions and
	variables available.

NOTE
	Some objects have declared their variables as private, in which case
	they cannot be directly accessed from inheriting objects, but the
	indirect mechanism of function calls must be used.
