FUNCTION

NAME
        find_living - Find a named living object.


SYNTAX
	object find_living(string name)

DESCRIPTION
	This function returns the living object with the given `name'.
	The argument `name' must be given in lowercase for this function
	to work.


NOTE
	For this function to work, the object must have added its
	name to the game-driver internal list by calling the function
	`set_living_name()'. Just making it living with
	`enable_commands()' is not enough.
