$ERR.REX

From Rosetta Code

The $ERR.REX (REXX) program is used to issue various formatted error messages from other REXX programs.

The $ERR.REX program makes use of the $T.REX program to issue the error messages in red (if available).

The help for the $ERR REXX program is included here ──► $ERR.HEL.
