10.1 Error message format

This Section describes the meaning of the VICAR error messages. VICAR error messages are given in the following form:

[VIC2-—key] message

where VIC2 indicates that the message was issued from the VICAR2 package, and key is the specific key or identifier for the message given. The message key may be used to ask for help with the HELP-MESSAGE command in the VICAR supervisor or to look up a message in this Section. In addition, the key is stored internally by the supervisor, so that by simply typing a question mark (?) to the prompt, help on the last error message given is received.
