+       Continue reforming error message support.  In this phase, we
+       divide the classification of messages along "category" and
+       "severity" axes.
+
+       * message.h: (enum msg_class) Named this set of enumerations.
+       (enum msg_category) New enum: MSG_GENERAL, MSG_SYNTAX, MSG_DATA.
+       (enum msg_severity) New enum: MSG_ERROR, MSG_WARNING, MSG_NOTE.
+       (msg_class_to_category) New inline function.
+       (msg_class_to_severity) New inline function.
+       (msg_class_from_category_and_severity) New inline function.
+       (struct error) Removed `class' member, added `category',
+       `severity'.  Updated all users of this struct to use the new
+       members.
+
+Sun Apr 16 20:33:19 2006  Ben Pfaff  <blp@gnu.org>
+
+       * str.c (ds_vprintf): Don't try to write into the string if it is
+       null.
+

+
+       GNU standards require "file name" instead of "filename" in
+       documentation.  It's nice for our code to follow the convention
+       too.
+       
+       * message.h: (struct file_locator) Rename filename member to
+       file_name.  Updated all references.
+
+Sun Apr 16 16:05:43 2006  Ben Pfaff  <blp@gnu.org>
+
+       Continue reforming error message support.  In this phase, we get
+       rid of VM() and the other msg() support for "verbosity", replacing
+       it by a new function verbose_msg().
+
+       * message.h: (enum ERR_CLASS_COUNT) Renamed ERR_CLASS_CNT.
+       (enum ERR_CLASS_MASK) Removed.
+       (enum ERR_VERBOSITY_SHIFT) Removed.
+       (enum ERR_VERBOSITY_MASK) Removed.
+       (macro VM) Removed.
+
+Sun Apr 16 11:48:07 2006  Ben Pfaff  <blp@gnu.org>
+
+       Start reforming error message support.  In this phase, we get rid
+       of "installation errors" and change all uses of msg() in the
+       output drivers to uses of error() or error_at_line().
+
+       * message.h: Remove IE, IS enums.

        * str.c: (ds_separate) Change interface for cleanliness and
