OBJECT:
	container 


DESCRIPTION:
	A cointainer is a special object which can contain other objects.
	It provides the same functions as the thing(S) class, but adds
	some functions for the handling of contents. It defines some
	properties related to what and how much is contained in it.

	The following additional properties are defined for a container:
	P_MAX_WEIGHT, P_WEIGHT_CONTENTS

	Note that the weight of a container is handled especially:
	SetProp(P_WEIGHT,weight) sets the weight of the container
	without contents, while QueryProp(P_WEIGHT) returns the total
	weight of the container plus contents.

	For now, you may use the following function to add or remove
	weight from the container.

	AddWeight(weight)
	  Adds  to the container. If its OK, 1 is returned,
	  otherwise 0. Only if the weight fits into the container, the
	  weight is adjusted.

	MayAddWeight(weight)
	  Like AddWeight, but if the weight fits inside the container,
	  the total weight is NOT updated. You may use this function to
	  test if an object fits into a container.

	NOTE: Currently, these functions may be called from outside.
	In a alter stage, movement of objects will be done by calling
	the move() function in the object to be moved. The move()
	function of that object will then call (May)AddWeight() itself
	to determine if it may enter the container.
