I am the author of the BSD UNIX error(1) utility which was first released in 1982. I am now gathering data on how it has been used. Error is a program for analyzing error messages produced by UNIX compiler front ends. Error inserts the error messages as comments back to the offending source program. Typically, from the csh, Error is invoked as: cc bar.c baz.c |& error -qv I am interested in people's experiences in one or more of: using Error, modifying Error to suit their needs, modifying compilers to generate Error messages suitable for Error, or writing or using systems that are similar to Error. Please reply directly to me, and not to the newsgroup. Thank you! Robert R. Henry rrh@cs.washington.edu Computer Science Department, FR-35 University of Washington Seattle, WA 98195
