A Summary of Commands edExplain

The translateLst file should be updated to include the msgID, msg string, and file name, in which the explain text can be found (usually just the msgID name). When exiting the translateLst file, enter :w! followed by q.

Two exceptions exist to the rule that the file contains clear text that will be displayed to the user:

#%W% %T% %H%

<< TWIP007 TWIP_BDERR >>

.... text of explanation describing what a T1 card error

means...
