   9 In previous versions the check and inventory plugins of Check_MK
  10 could use the variable <tt>g_hostname</tt> to refer to the host
  11 that is currently being checked and <tt>g_service_description</tt>
  12 to get the description of the service that is currently being
  13 checked.
  14
  15 Instead of those variables, you can now use the functions
  16 <tt>host_name()</tt> and <tt>service_description()</tt>
