! WhoWhat.H - Modified from WhatIs.H by A.C. Murie, by David A. Cornelson
!
! Note: I felt I abused it enough so that I would call it another name and add different
! instructions. WhatIs.H ambiguously answered who and what questions and I wanted
! them to be answered appropriately. So, I 'fixed' it.
!
! USAGE
!
! Include this file after "parser.h".
!
! Add the attribute 'queryable' to your object to allow for WHO am/is/are or WHAT is/am/are
! queries.
!
! Add the whatisit property with a string or function to describe what the object is.
!
! Add whoisit property to describe who the object is.
!
! Additionally, objects that do not appear in the game may be stored in the object
! 'QueryObjs'. They will be in scope all the time, and may be used for general game
! concepts
!
! As a final option, the actions WhoIs and WhatIs may be used in an objects 'before' code
! to print the whoisit or whatisit text.
!
! COMMENTS...
!
! If you intend to allow the player to change to different player objects using ChangePlayer,
! then make sure you write functions to determine which response is appropriate for whatisit
! and whoisit.
!
! The WhoIs routine check's if the object is animate before answering.
!
! I put smartass comments in for defaults.
