visit src/doc/msgs/s2-us.msgs this file contains most (not all, unfortunately) of the messages issued by axiom. i wrote it so that we could "internationalize" the messages (e.g. write german equivalent text) hence the "us" in name. you could rewrite the message to make it clearer and send a patch. most of the message from axiom, as you'd expect from a piece of research software, are nearly "debugging" messages intended for people who know what they are doing. we could make a beginner or expert set of meesage. if you're feeling ambitious you could translate the messages into your native language and we could make the system use the native language version. i'm not sure if the mechanism fully works as i'm unable to speak other languagees so it's never been fully tested. there are several messages that deal with "abbreviations" S2IL0006 S2IL0009 S2IL0010 S2IL0019 S2IL0021 S2IM0003 S2IS0028 S2IZ0001 S2IZ0002 <-- your offending message S2IZ0003 S2IZ0004 S2IZ0005 S2IZ0006 S2IZ0009 S2IZ0010 S2IZ0043 S2IZ0056 S2IZ0057 _______________________________________________ Axiom-developer mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/axiom-developer
