"""
Send the given message to all players connected to channel. Note that
no permission-checking is done here; it is assumed to have been
done before calling this method. The optional keywords are not used if
persistent is False.
Args:
msgobj (Msg, TempMsg or str): If a Msg/TempMsg, the remaining
keywords will be ignored (since the Msg/TempMsg object already
has all the data). If a string, this will either be sent as-is
(if persistent=False) or it will be used together with `header`
and `senders` keywords to create a Msg instance on the fly.
header (str, optional): A header for building the message.
senders (Object, Player or list, optional): Optional if persistent=False, used
to build senders for the message.
sender_strings (list, optional): Name strings of senders. Used for external
connections where the sender is not a player or object.
When this is defined, external will be assumed.
keep_log (bool or None, optional): This allows to temporarily change the logging status of
this channel message. If `None`, the Channel's `keep_log` Attribute will
be used. If `True` or `False`, that logging status will be used for this
message only (note that for unlogged channels, a `True` value here will
create a new log file only for this message).
online (bool, optional) - If this is set true, only messages people who are
online. Otherwise, messages all players connected. This can
make things faster, but may not trigger listeners on players
that are offline.
emit (bool, optional) - Signals to the message formatter that this message is
not to be directly associated with a name.
external (bool, optional): Treat this message as being
agnostic of its sender.
Returns:
success (bool): Returns `True` if message sending was
successful, `False` otherwise.
