| Description |
provides a means of displaying messages from the "messages" file in their "output" format.
Messages are generally kept in the "dm,messages," file, but the process may specify any file which contains items with a similar format to the items in "dm,messages,". See "messages, file, Definition" for more information on how error messages are constructed and interpreted. "file.reference" is the name of the file, usually "messages", that contains the message list. "msg.list" indicates one or more item-ids of items in the "messages" file. |

| Example |
print-err messages 3
[3] The verb 'A' is not defined. This looks like it did NOT work. It actually did. Message "3" prints when an invalid verb is issued. The 'A' is where the invalid verb would appear. print-err messages 333 [333] The file of files cannot be cleared or deleted. print-err messages 659 536 [659] Line printer ready. [536] already logged off data "stuff" execute "print-err dm,messages, 201" This FlashBASIC code produces the output: [201] 'stuff' is not a file name. |
