% \section{Error handling}
%
% This section defines \LaTeX's error commands.
%
% \StopEventually{}
%
%
% The `2ekernel' code ensures that a |\usepackage{autoerr}| is
% essentially ignored if a `full' format is being used that has
% the error messages already in the format.
%    \begin{macrocode}
%<2ekernel>\expandafter\let\csname ver@autoerr.sty\endcsname\fmtversion
%    \end{macrocode}
%
%    \begin{macrocode}
%<*2ekernel|autoload>
%    \end{macrocode}
%
% \subsection{General commands}
%
% \begin{macro}{\MessageBreak}
%    This command prints a new-line inside a message, followed by a 
%    continuation line begun with |\@msg@continuation|.  Normally it is 
%    defined to be |\relax|, but inside messages, it is let to 
%    |\@message@break|.
%    \begin{macrocode}
\let\MessageBreak\relax
%    \end{macrocode}
% \end{macro}
%
% \changes{v1.2g}{1994/11/04}{Added \cs{set@display@protect} to
%    \cs{Generic*} commands.  ASAJ.}
%
% \begin{macro}{\GenericInfo}
%    This takes two arguments: a continuation and a message, and sends 
%    the result to the log file.
%    \begin{macrocode}
\DeclareRobustCommand{\GenericInfo}[2]{%
   \begingroup
      \def\MessageBreak{^^J#1}%
      \set@display@protect

   \endgroup
}
%    \end{macrocode}
% \end{macro}
%
% \begin{macro}{\GenericWarning}
%    This takes two arguments: a continuation and a message, and sends 
%    the result to the screen.
%    \begin{macrocode}
\DeclareRobustCommand{\GenericWarning}[2]{%
   \begingroup
      \def\MessageBreak{^^J#1}%
      \set@display@protect
      \immediate\write\@unused{^^J#2\on@line.^^J}%
   \endgroup
}
%</2ekernel|autoload>
%    \end{macrocode}
% \end{macro}
%
% \begin{macro}{\GenericError}
% This macro takes four arguments: a continuation,
% an error message, where to go for further information, and the help
% information.  It displays the error message, and sets the error help
% (the result of typing |h| to the prompt), and does a horrible hack
% to turn the last context line (which by default is the only context
% line) into just three dots.  This could be made more efficient.

% Unfortunately \TeX\ versions older than 3.141 have a bug which means
% that |^^J| does not force a linebreak in |\message| and |\errmessage|
% commands. So for these old \TeX's we use |\typeout| to produce the
% message, and then have an empty |\errmessage| command. This causes an
% extra line of the form
%\begin{verbatim}
%! .
%\end{verbatim}
% To appear on the terminal, but if you do not like it, you can always
% upgrade your \TeX! In order for your format to use this version, you
% must define the macro |\@TeXversion| to be the version number, e.g.,
% 3.14 of the underlying \TeX. See the comments in
% \texttt{ltdircheck.dtx}.

%  These commands are intended for use by package and class writers, to
%  give information to authors.  The syntax is:
%    \begin{quote}
%       |\PackageError{|\meta{package}|}{|^^A
%          \meta{error}|}{|\meta{help}|}| \\
%       |\PackageWarning{|\meta{package}|}{|\meta{warning}|}| \\
%       |\PackageWarningNoLine{|\meta{package}|}{|\meta{warning}|}| \\
%       |\PackageInfo{|\meta{package}|}{|\meta{info}|}|
%    \end{quote}
%    and similarly for classes.  The |Error| commands print the
%    \meta{error} message, and present the interactive prompt; if the
%    author types |h|, then the \meta{help} information is displayed.
%    The |Warning| commands produce a warning but do not present the
%    interactive prompt.  The |WarningNoLine| commands do the same,
%    but don't print the input line number.  The |Info| commands write
%    the message to the
%    |log| file.  Within the messages, the command 
%    |\MessageBreak| can be used to
%    break a line, |\protect| can be used to protect command names,
%    and |\space| is a space, for example:
% \begin{verbatim}
%    \newcommand{\foo}{FOO}
%    \PackageWarning{ethel}{%
%       Your hovercraft is full of eels,\MessageBreak
%       and \protect\foo\space is \foo}
% \end{verbatim}
%    produces:
% \begin{verbatim}
%    Package ethel warning: Your hovercraft is full of eels,
%    (ethel)                and \foo is FOO on input line 54.
