I would suggest printing a URL to a page on wiki.laptop.org that has more information and/or an error code with a link to look up the error code. (I prefer the former, but the latter could save a few bytes (that I think are probably not worth saving) by storing only one URL for looking up the problems, plus the error code strings/numbers, combining them at error print time.) -- Asheesh. -- If you do something right once, someone will ask you to do it again. _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
