| 4 | DESCRIPTION |
| 5 | Efuns are "system calls" in the LPC driver, the C program |
| 6 | which compiles and executes the LPC programs of the mudlib. |
| 7 | These are hardcoded functions which perform basic tasks which |
| 8 | would be ineffective or impossible to be implemented in the |
| 9 | mudlib. |
| 10 | |
| 11 | There are efuns for accessing the underlying filesystem, for |
| 12 | creating, moving and destructing objects, for writing |
| 13 | messages to users, for manipulation of LPC data types. |
