reports errors by displaying a message in the window
or in a dialog box. In the latter case there are two types of error dialogs:
- Warning messages appear in a box with two buttons: Cancel and Continue.
The former lets you cancel a whole heap of
\special errors when
viewing a DVI file (try page 16 in nasty.dvi for example).
- Fatal messages appear in a box with a Quit button (which will quit ).
Most errors, particularly the serious ones, are accompanied by a beep.
Let's now look at the most likely errors you'll encounter and discuss
what you can do to prevent them recurring.
