SYNOPSIS
mapping map_indices(mapping m, string func, string|object ob, ...)
mapping map_indices(mapping m, closure cl, ...)
DESCRIPTION
ob->func() is called resp. cl applied to every element in the mapping,
with the key of the element as first argument, and then the extra args
that were given to map_indices (these args must not be protected
references like &(i[0])). The data item in the mapping is replaced by
the return value of the function. ob can also be a file_name of an
object.
If <ob> is omitted, or neither a string nor an object, it
defaults to this_object().
Note that if mapping m has more than one value per key, these
are ignored: the resulting mapping always has one value per key.
Also note that the behaviour of this function is different from
map(<array>).
EXAMPLES
m = mkmapping(users());
m = map_indices(m, #'environment);
HISTORY
In LDMud 3.2.6 renamed from map_mapping() and complemented by map().
