SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/commands.h>

mixed * match_command (string command, object origin)

DESCRIPTION
Take the command <command>, parse it, and return an array of all
matching actions added to <origin> (read: <origin> is the object
'issuing' the command).

Each entry in the result array is itself an array of:

string [CMDM_VERB]: The matched verb.
string [CMDM_ARG]: The argument string remaining, or 0 if none.
object [CMDM_OBJECT]: The object defining the action.
string [CMDM_FUN]: The name of the function to call in
CMDM_OBJECT, which may be static.

The efun is useful for both debugging, and for implementing your
own H_COMMAND handling.

HISTORY
Introduced in LDMud 3.3.259.
