MESSAGE
[SIC\]MESSAGE Severity ProcedureName "Message"
[SIC\]MESSAGE Severity ProcedureName Arg1 Arg2 ... ArgN [/FORMAT
Fmt1 Fmt2 ... FmtN]
Print a message using the same mechanism as the one used by Gildas pro-
grams. In particular, it will be printed or not, to the terminal and/or
to the message file, depending on the filters that currently apply to
messages.
- The severity must be a single letter from one of the following:
F)atal, E)rror, W)arning, R)esult, I)nfo, D)ebug, T)race, C)ommand,
U)nknown.
- The procedure name is a free character string.
- The message must have at least one component. Multiple remaining argu-
ments will be printed out spaced by a single space. Enclose with dou-
ble-quote a character string if you want to use more than one space.
- If /FORMAT option is invoked, each argument is displayed using its as-
sociated format. Formats are Fortran ones (so may be slightly machine-
dependent) like a10, i2, f5.2 and so on.
Example:
SIC> MESSAGE I FOO "Hello world!"
I-FOO, Hello world!
For more information on message filters, see the HELP for the SIC MES-
SAGE command.
