    One time I was hacking aroung on the system when all of the sudden
    I notices that the error messages changed.  Heres and example...
    
    %YOU-R-STUPID% - You screwed up Idoit.
      changed to
    You screwed up Idoit.
    
    Could someone tell me how I did this??  I think I prefer the second
    way as it comes across nicer.

        YUP,
        	Set message /(no)facility/(no)ident/(no)severity/(no)text
        
        Where
        
        %DIRECT-E-OPENIN, error opening DD:[QUODLING]*.*;* as input
        
        %DIRECT is facility
        OPENIN is ident
        -E- is severity
        and the rest is the text.
        
        Then of course, you can always write your own message file.
        (Like to april fool one.)
