NAME

       object_message - Sends a message to an object and returns the answer. Allegro game programming library.

SYNOPSIS

       #include <allegro.h>

       int object_message(DIALOG *dialog, int msg, int c);

DESCRIPTION

       Sends  a message to an object and returns the answer it has generated.  Remember that the first parameter is the dialog object (not a whole
       array) that you wish to send the message to. For example, to make the second object in a dialog draw itself, you might write:

	  object_message(&dialog[1], MSG_DRAW, 0);

       The function will take care of scaring and unscaring the mouse if the message is MSG_DRAW.
