Since the SQL more uses )MORE error reporting for all the details, I'm finding myself writing )MORE quite a lot. This led me to think about better ways to display this information in Emacs.
How does other APL development environments display this? I've been thinking of such things as: - Flashing an overlay box on the screen for a second or so, containing the )MORE text - Displaying a symbol on the modeline (for you non-Emacs users, that's the row of information such as line number, file name, etc below the text edit area) - Displaying the )MORE text in the message area (the blank line below the modeline at the bottom of the screen). Very neat for single-line messages, but jarring for multi-line ones (I guess I could truncate multi-line messages though) - Other options? Do nothing like today? How does/did other APL environments handle detailed error reporting? Regards, Elias
