| SYNOPSIS |
| void preload(string file) |
| |
| DESCRIPTION |
| Load the object with the given file name (which was returned by |
| epilog()). It is the task of the epilog()/preload() pair to ensure |
| the validity of the given strings (e.g. filtering out comments |
| and blank lines). For preload itself a call_other(file, "???") |
| is sufficient, but it should be guarded by a catch() to avoid |
| premature blockings. Also it is wise to change the master's |
| euid from root_uid to something less privileged for the time |
| of the preload. |
| |
| You can of course do anything else with the passed strings - |
| preloading is just the traditional task. |
